The big thing I saw as an advantage was the visibility when you look around, because the panels aren't blocking your side/rear views. That was a big plus.
But was the increased visibility worth the not being able to hit anything? Nah.
You either mark the screen (some folks use an overlay, or a piece of scotch tape, or put a little dot on the glass if you have a CRT), or put your mouse cursor on the dot in the gunsight,
then move your head position, keeping the mouse in place.
I personally use the mouse cursor (you can handily disable the mouse with a single keystroke)- I think this is the simplest and most effective method. Marking the glass on my old CRT caused me to see 2 dots when I focused on the action, and I now have an LCD, which I'm trying very hard not to screw up.
