If it blocks LOS to the model, then yes. Remember it's true LOS. Any verify this?
There are many reasons to stay with Tau. It seems you are trying to play Tau how they were played in 4th Edition, but 5th is a whole new ball game for the little blue dudes.
You gain things over what you lose. For example, no enemy can roll through your units in assault now. You will get a turn of shooting if your models die in assault now (unless they died in your turn, but its always been like that). Kroot got a lot better, with their ability to outflank and do some potential harrying of enemy guns.
Your skimmers can still move and shoot better than most. having devilsfish transport around scoring units (which count as scoring if they sit inside) is a big advantage in 5th for grabbing those objectives late in the game.
These are just a few of the reasons off the top of my head.
Imo though, tau got better n 5th, not worse. Were you having enough success in 4th to think 5th made your army much worse? Or do you think it may be a play style thing?
