Its not just the weight of wire ropes that can be the problem, its the occasional spikes that at the most inopportune moment pierce your hand even through the best of gloves
The advantages of using synthetic rope over wire rope are enormous. Of all the benefits of using Dyneeema, the most important is Safety
Should there be an unfortunate occurrence through poor winching practice with the rope being damaged beyond belief over a sharp edge, yes it could break (so can a tow rope over a bumper!)
However, if our Dyneema does break in an unfortunate scenario, it will not flail. Sure it will jump back a bit, but theres no weight to take it
If the attachment point, shackle or what-have-you parts company with your load or ground anchor, the weight could cause the Dyneema to retract, but nothing like the ferocity of a flying steel rope
And the Dyneema is so very easy to splice if required to effect repairs
