It's not a hermetically sealed enclosed glass panel that shuts out the outdoor environment!

 When I lived in West Boca I couldn't imagine living without the screened in pool. My buddy Ray was a purist and did not have an enclosure,  he regularly had to fish out frogs, snakes, palmetto bugs, vegetation, lizards & worry about gators.  
And the mosquitos , flies etc were ridiculous. 
Now,  living near the inter-coastal in Boynton ..  no problem foregoing the cage.
