Well sometimes there are technical limitations that preven more advantageous positioning.

For example, the shield generators on Hoth couldn't be buried because of how much heat they put out. If you put them beneath all that insulating snow, there would be melting, boiling, evaporating, and oh so much screaming as a result.
