How will the booster support its own (and Starship's) weight when it's unfueled? It won't have a chest-plate of sweaty 310S like the Starship will, right? Will it need some kind of back bone or internal structure to remain structurally stable when unpressurized?

Welded, internal, longitudinal hat stringers. To the degree it may need hoop stiffness (prob not), combine with slosh baffles.
