Seems to me that the deeper the radials are buried the more the covering
material might detract from performance in some situations. If the
covering material were a perfect conductor then radials would be
redundant. If the covering material is a perfect insulator the radials
would not be interfered with at all.
Maybe some of our resident gurus might explain what happens in between
the above two idealized situations and explain what happens when the
covering material is in between an insulator and a conductor.

I don’t think it’s necessary for radials to much deeper than just under the
