Back in the day I beat MGS2 and MGS3 on Extreme. The box shouldn’t be your plan for sneaking past any guards. It’s for situations where you are caught out without any cover and you need to hide. Pop in to it right as they are about to round the corner. Pop out and move on once they are out of sight. The box is a crutch. You can really abuse it in MGS1, but it’s usually easier and faster to just run around the guards.
You still might like to consider giving some more context and explaining it, for the benefit of people who may be lacking it. I myself personally never played MGS, so I'm still not clear on what was your actual intention, even with the link you provided in the other comment (which looks like a loooong read).
I imagined based on the title that they would basically have to include it, and even though I was expecting it, I was still delighted to see a screen cap of Snake with a box over his head.
Once the AI has worked it's way through all the twists and turns of the Metal Gear series we are probably back in trouble, though.
