Apparently for some people "equally strong armor" means "I will never win again".
It only speaks about the current state of the game and how 'good' the complainers are.
Now that they buff T34 damage from 120 to 160 they will 3 shot PAK 40s to death, if they hit it
also reducing IS-2 and ISU-152 anti-infantry (reduce AOE) and buffing their penetration values is a welcomed change,
because now only soviet ZIZ AT gun at vet 3 has 221 penetration and that is the best penetration for soviet forces in the game, if you ignore the soviet howitzer having 1000 penetration
