APCs receiving DF & BF?
Here's one: The Definition (pg 5, 4th ed.) of "Open-Top AFV" says: "An AFV with no armor on top, making it vulnerable to step losses from direct and bombardment fire." (That is as it should be, but there is no protection from any fire for the troops if that is the case.) On the other hand, Rule 7.25, Armor Immunity, says: "If a unit has a printed armor value, it is immune to all but an X or #X result on the direct fire or bombardment fire tables. If the unit is an APC, any unit or leader it is transporting is immune well." (This negates the openness of the APC.)

The question arises are the APCs (open-top type) subject to BP and DF or no? If they are immune it does seem too easy for the troops... but they are exposed to the fire (because of the open top). Perhaps a "Column shift" would be in order?
