I have fed out of the cage for the better part of fifteen years everything from retics, burms, and gaboons to kings, corns and garters and will continue to do so as long as I live but it is a personal preferance. I think safety is the most important thing. In or out as long as you pay attention to to what you, and more importantly your animal is doing and don't get sloppy either way can work fine.
I got sloppy once and was grabbed by a 10 foot burm while feeding out of the cage. He grabbed my hand and started to wrap around my arm. I fed him in a bathtub so I was able to get him off very quickly by turning the water on with my free hand and putting his head under the faucet he let go within seconds but I will never be that complacent again.
