They (APPOLO 12)would'rejected,if they could've shutdown the engines,or eject.
Or maybe ,not enaugh rwy available to reject safely. (Not so big TORA for a rocket ,I guess)
Maybe the lighting strike won't make you abort,but maybe the CB over the field (that created the lighting) or the 'windshear ahead ' will make you decide to reject (or even better,delay takeoff) .
