Exceedingly cool visually. As an ardent militarist, though, I have to point out that isolating the ship's captain atop a "batter's tee" for enemies to shoot at, with the bridge crew one level below him, is at least as bad an idea as putting the Enterprise bridge at the bullseye of that giant target they called the main hull. Unless this was designed by NCOs or junior officers hoping the enemy will help them get Klingon promotion....
