If you are doing long range MG fire with a hidden unit in good terrain, it will take a while for the enemy to spot you in order to return fire. And spraying the tanks with MG fire will make them button up and less likely to spot you - and the tank riders that have just dismounted are not likely to be in a status that allows them to do much spotting either.

I often like to give enemy tanks some healthy MG treatment to button them up before opening fire with the anti-tank guns.

Its certainly worth taking the shot, gets rid of the tanks extra eyes & makes it more vulnerable to attack by your units as accuracy will also be decreased.
Tank riders are considered in very poor terrain so there is a very good chance of causing casualties, sometimes quite severe ones.
Like in real life buttoned up tanks stripped of infantry support are in big trouble.
