Not sure what are you talking about, because I main SOV and I always build t34/76. Double AT can be tricky, but doable. Ofc SOV have access to katy to punish the AT guns, but still, very effective in counter attacks, roaming, defending points etc and all things infantry killing related.
Huh? T34/76 is cheaper and performs way better against infantry while also not being forced to switch ammo types to engage different targets. Plus it has ram. So I don't really know what the argument is here. In teamgames T34 is badass while sherman is just ass.
