Other than cutting some tree roots and the original dig being a real PITA, why not bury my rain barrels?

Benefits: No need to cut downspouts More visually attractive Prevents light from getting in

Drawbacks: No gravity fed options to empty( I use a stick pump anyway) Sucks to dig a big hole Possible risk to foundation settling?!??
