A top armour hit takes angle into account as well - just like a side armour shot does. So it can generate rather more resistance than you thought at longer ranges - that "2" can get an effective or 6 armour at long range, as the shell will have a bad angle of fall. Topshots are really only good in rather close.

Says Andy, whose A13s were up on top of some hills shooting down at Italian M13/40s at 1000-1200 yards the other week, and getting top hits with 6 resistance for the top hit shots
I'm not sure that makes sense to me (that angles make a difference when a top is hit), but after posting what I did it did occur to me that top hits should be much more rarer from a further distance, so maybe even just given the limited outlook as I am looking at it now, that might had been enough distance to make the hits a lot further from occuring than I commonly see and therefore rendering the impossible HE damaging shots, more possible than I foresee.
