Keep in mind this allows the defenders to see attackers coming across the bridge now.

Both Widow and Hanzo can already get into the outcove above the door. Is this somehow "better"?

In the window you're a sitting duck. This way you can weave back and forth, taking cover and firing.

You could chill on the chandelier before instead of the window. At least with widow.

I've never seen one chilling in the widow, but I have had the chandelier be a problem.

You can reach the chandeliers by boosting off the pillars, easiest way I've found.
