I feel like phaser emitters on nacelle pylons is a general nono.
Typically you see them on thicker areas and further from the warp nacelles.
I imagine having a bunch of phased energy next to the source of your warp field could be tricky.
It would also be particularly bad if your phasers had some sort of catastrophic failure and it blew off one of your warp nacelles, or if the enemy ship was targeting phasers and blew a hole through your pylon in the process.
Unless I’m misreading the image and someone is trying to shoot the pylon.
Voyager had phasers on the pylons. The Enterprise-D actually got phasers added to the nacelles, of all thing, in a later season. I don’t think either ship was actually seen firing them, though.
