I am wondering why you say this??? My inlaws has had one of these for over 3 years (and the one before that was 3+) and is very happy and healthy.

Also, I had one and my Jimmy was very happy in it. I'm not sure why he died, but I am 99% sure it wasn't because he was living in that kind of setup. I kept the roots trimmed, and made sure there was plenty of air that could get in.

i am not being argumentative. I really would like to know if there is danger in this kind of setup.
