I'm still not sure how that will be different in terms of vulnerability to artillery and MLRS. They are just as susceptible to being hit.

I understand that, but it’s on a tank-to-tank comparison that the difference stands out

My point is that a lot of the advantages of the equipment can be irrelevant considering other shortcomings in the overall capability.

If they both have the same vulnerability to artillery, then I don’t see why that’s really a shortcoming. Like in an equation, the same variable on either side balances out.
