Now imagine a target, hiding behind a bunch of obstacles, making it harder to hit, while also moving. It's trading obscurity as a defense for the ability to actually defend yourself. Isn't that way better?

Now all the targets are bundled together in one little package. They might have a little more defensive power, but I think it was probably much better when they weren't a threat at all.
