Which one and what situation would tilt your choice?

Best example while you know there is a line of Zis & 57mm, Sturmtiger can't do shit to these.

Wall of tank destoyers? Stuka.
Wall of AT guns? Sturmtiger.

Depends on what opponents have.
Wall of tank destoyers? Stuka.
Wall of AT guns? Sturmtiger.
I think Stuka is the best answer for both.

What does it do better than the stuka? I suppose not much, both are effective. Heavy Anti-armor damage perhaps.
The sturmtiger is actually fairly fast in a straight line, and has good armor. It it able to dart in rather safely. The key to using it aggressively is to use subtle scouting tools like the IR track or Spec Ops arty flares. I've darted in and destroyed everything from ISU's, repairing tanks, even priests.
One thing to note is that the sturmtiger rocket will stun tanks or add crits such as gun destroyed or permanently immobilized.

Stuka is too random + long reload and I'd prefer to get 2nd Panther than Sturmtiger.

You have a panther on the field already but need to thin out the infantry and support weapons.
Which one and what situation would tilt your choice?
Stuka. Support weapons are usually so close to each other that you can hit two of them with one stuka barrage. It would tilt my choice if the opponent also has tanks on the field. Since the Sturmtiger can reliably oneshot almost every tank (Sometimes Panther might need to put a shot in) that would cause a bigger damage. If it's just support weapons the Sturmtiger would just destroy one at a time, which is usually a waste.

Here's an interesting propagandacast.
Fortune tries to use a stuka throughout the game with very limited success despite some solid shots.
He could have used it better, and scouted more, but despite it being one of his first vehicles it have little effect on the game.

That is exactly how my Stuka behaves. It misses more often than it hits. Not worth 100 fuel IMHO. I like ISG 100 times better.
