Does anyone else think its kind of weird that .50 Cals on Shermans are 70 Muni when MG42 Pintles are 50? Do they have that much better DPS?

Yes, according to stat.coh2.hu data the 40% higher cost is justified by a better perfomance of 20,5% more dps on far and 0,48% more dps at near.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

It has worse stats in almost every regard: veterancy

White Phos that kills infantry, better accuracy, better speed and auto attack grenades don't really sound like a worse deal than just the stat buffs the Panther has.

You also forgot the OKW Panther who just happens have very powerful vet4 and 5 bonuses.
The Comet is a good tank, but the Panther is much more cost efficienty, especially because the Comet performs very unreliable and inconsistent in it's role.

I prefer an armor increase by 32 points
Comet is superior in the following areas:
Smaller size
more rear armor
war speed comes at veto 0 and is superior to blitz...
no doctrinal smoke
White Ph. out ranges ATGs and kills them from
Grenade kills ATG from close
More LOS
Detect invisible
Vehicle tracking
better R.O.F
Better accuracy on the move
(generally better at flanking)

PaKs sandbags should ghost.
Phosphor rounds are good but buggy and they don't stun vehicles and they hardly burn any models.

Why do you think it has better ai at long range, but worse at short range?
The main gun has 3 times the AOE, 50% less scatter, and 50% better moving accuracy. It is better at all ranges. Do you honestly think the Panther is an effective AI platform?
They're one of the strongest abilities in the game. Basically a decrew button for any Support teams up to 70 meters away, including Anti-Tank Guns.
Unlike Panther,comet can decimate infantry so yeah not a great idea to compare those units
I would also include a much larger AOE so that it can kill infantry and very low scatter, which is more useful on tanks.

Comet AI so superior
You should not post a vid of both fighting IS-2 frontally

Because Comets vs IS-2 happens quite often...(at least as often as panther vs IS-2)

I´ll leave just this here:
Keep in mind that I remove immortality on the rifles after they were set to hostile.

Here, I took the liberty of recording a video for you of what actually happens in the game. People dont just stand around in open ground, they will be in cover or moving around bunched up where the Comet will be much more effective. Oh, look, the Comet kills all the squads twice as fast.
The video also shows off the fantastically low scatter of the gun.

That's a good point, however your video is just as realistic and biased as mine. Who would stay around in yellow cover while being attacked by a gun with AoE? Claiming that the Panther has better AI was mistake/bold exaggereation of mine, yet it's not bad or even useless. My problem is the current overall performance of the Comet compared to the Panther when considering the factions strengths and weaknesses. It's more expensive to rush while maintaining an adequate power and it excels neither in AI nor AT. This becomes very bad when there´s no combined arms play possible (thanks to the british design). The vital elements of an army in the lategame are: tanks, infantry, artillery - whereas the british can rely on tanks and infantry only.
