Welle there are very little chance the pilot would be impacted by the aircraft carrier; The water displacement of a moving aircraft carrier is sufficient enough to push the pilot far from it. Well, I think so.
-
here's a dumn question: when a pilot ejects on takeoff like that, does the carrier make any attempt to change course, or does it just head right over the wet pilot?

Paper jets now?

In my era, 1972 -1992, most American jets took hands-off cat shots. You held your hand near your crotch, and the stick came back to it during the cat stroke. You stopped it, and held your T.O. angle of attack. It was not uncommon for equipment to either break free or come loose during the stroke. It was uncommon to have it effect your flight controls. I once had a ballast plate for ECM gear break free and nearly jam my horizontal stabilizer...This was on CVA-42.

The pilot was a German pilot in exchange with the French Navy. The report said that he kept his right hand on the stick during the launch (which is forbidden) and the force of Gs made him pull the stick that caused the fatal stall.
Quite serious mistake..
