I love when Artosis on any stream tells something that isnt true and this is one of em. This is not to poke fun of Artosis because he isnt a true BW nerd Or maybe it is, i dunno, anyways onto the TRUTH:
They did patch out the normal way of putting sieged tanks under buildings but it still isnt fixed. (patched: siege state before building lands)
If you give siege mode command late enough in a north-west pointing direction you will have a good enough time-window for building to land before tank turns around to hit siege state.
The check for sieged tanks is just as the building hits the ground and not continued checks after.

1. Start landing building. 2. Move tank into position and face north-west. 3. Just as building is about to hit the ground, click siege.
I'd say approximately 50% of Artosis' claims are true, and the other 50% appear to be part of an alternate reality. So at the end of the day Artosis isn't never not wrong about nothing in particular.

Pretty sure the check happens the very moment when the Tank switches into the (fully) sieged Tank model. That's why Tanks can rarely even blow up on things like Missile Turrets, too. That would also be consistent with what you describe here – that if the Tank is already fully sieged before the Building "touches ground" it does not undergo the collision check and hence stays alive. LUCKYNEWB's video looks like the Tank needs to siege late though… Hmm…

P are 43% of players but just 41% of S rank. It is a statistical truth that P are underrepresented at S rank. It is relatively easy to get B with Protoss, they make up more of B than they should based on raw numbers, but it is relatively hard to get S with Protoss. Protoss players have a much harder time hitting S than their Terran brethren for example. The stats don't lie.
