A2A Supercharged Intake Options

Hey guys, maybe I am way outta line here! But, why the heck all of the effort to squeeze an intake through the radiator support?

The radiator support on our cars is just a plastic structure that has nearly zero value as a crash integrity structure, so why not just window the area that we need an intake tube to go through?

Please excuse me if I am asking a naive question. I am planning on getting the TG ACE kit, and all of this effort about a clean way to bring intake air into the SC has me researching a lot. I have looked at pictures of the 370Z and G37 front end and radiator supports and am just wondering why not hack it up? It's not going to rust away.....
