There's one reason I could think of for the cuirass to be blended with the body. It might mean the armour and the man are one and the same, inseparable and functioning as one. Without the bottom rim it would look like the man's torso is painted. A mythological warrior thing. We might be looking at it too much like a documentary photo or functional blueprint.
