I've never used a cage as punishment. And there are much more pleasant ways of making a submissive feel "uncomfortable" in my opinion (though there are some fetish videos of girls in very tiny cages - but those aren't my cup of tea [the cages, that is]).
Agreed some prefer that. In my mind, feeling safe is a matter of perception. The cage would be symbolic, and a house could become a cage, just larger than one that limits movement to being kept in the fetal position. Think of a zoo animal. So what your cage is, is only limited by your perception of what you believe is your cage. The glass ceiling POV if you will.
