Antenna Poles

I've noticed most Antenna Masts are just hollow pipes with the coax running along outside of them.

If it is a hollow pipe, why wouldn't someone run the coax through the pipe?

It seems like this would protect the coax from falling limbs or whatever.

Just curious. Maybe it's an RF/Faraday Cage thing.
