Wouldn’t it be more economical to install it in straight lines? I am sure there is a good reason but searching for it turns up nothing.
In: Engineering
**Straight line:**
Put a jacket over it, climb over as easy as a fence post.
To get it at waist/chest level, you need to tension it between two posts, which means that if you cut it with bolt cutters, it’ll fall to the ground, immediately useless.
Drive a vehicle over it, and it’ll bend down and embed itself into the ground no problem.
**Coil:**
Put a jacket over it, and you’ll just bend the adjacent coils inward towards you.
You can get it to waist/chest level just by… letting it sit there. If someone tries to cut it, they’ll need to cut at least two separate places and still, carefully, drag a section away.
Drive a vehicle over it, and the loops will probably get caught in the tires/treads and wrap around the axles or sprockets, wrecking the machinery.
