Aside from the fact that these iron bunkers limits the turret's traverse and visual threat/target ability, it's also a prime target for Ukrainian FPVs to fly into and detonate - the "cage" enhances the explosion, which increases the destructive power that otherwise would have been minimal to the tank's armor.
 
Even Russian submarines are easier to spot today. According to Moscow, there's nothing wrong with the sub and it surfaces as planned…but it's being towed and, according to some reports, has lost most of its fuel. I'll leave it up to you, dear reader, to decide which account to believe:
