I would only consider altering the environment to enable hiding if the backstabber had the Serendipity advantage. Otherwise it is what it is.

BTW did you mean "logistical" or "logical"? If you truly meant "logistical" then you're addressing an argument no one on this thread has made, so maybe you just made a typo? No one said it was "logistically" difficult for backstabbing to alter gameworld terrain; but whenever there's a preexisting fictional context it isn't logical. (Yes, Serendipity deliberately breaks logic; that's why it costs 15 points and isn't allowed in all games.)
