Such a strange hobby...

Bps are not social creatures as much as we'd like to think they know us and love seeing us, they do not. They tolerate being handled. They much prefer to be left alone feeling secure so a nice dark tub or rack is heaven for them and easy to maintain proper husbandry. They are not a dog or cat it coming up to the glass is not it wanting to see how you're doing. Unfortunate but true. Not sure why you think suggesting AP/vision type cages over glass screen tops is suggesting not being able to display them. I'm not attacking you at all but more times than not keeping a glass tank is a nightmare of constant maintenance, and you can get the same amount of display you like without any headaches with something like AP cages.

Here's my t8, you can see them just fine.

As always your milage may vary.
And IMO if you really do that much research well before buying a bp then you wouldn't have bought a glass viv with a mesh top which can cause problems for you BP. . All research would point you towards a viv that can hold heat and humidity without having to use things like wet substrate, mods to the viv, several mists a day and the list goes on and on.
