It's not overly realistic to have your commander with his head constantly out the tank but I also don't think it's entirely unreasonable for them to pop out briefly every now and then; plus it's 40k so it's not exactly a paragon of realism. And it's just something to identify the model with.
Funnily enough in actual WW2 historic gaming people often represent squadron leaders as a tank with a tank commander sticking his head out of the hatch

Oh really hahaha. It works as a way to identify the commander. It doesn't mean the character continually has their head out the tank 'in universe'.
