I think the ship is worth less than the cable. Even if all the crew are Chinese spies, their lives are probably worth less to China than the value of successfully cutting the cable.
If I were Taiwan, I would put the whole crew on trial for espionage, and publicize it as much as possible.
If I were China I'd use something disposable for these tasks, too.
