A lot of your "problems" are solely relevant in 1v1, if you wanna call them that. IN team games you have a teammate who can help.

Mostly dealing with snipers is a l2p issue. Playing more passive, back teching etc. infiltraion, mines, counter snipe, lv´s. There area lot of things you can do. And comming with a price tag of 360mp = 1 1/2 squads a huge investment that can be killed very fast. NOt to mention way less map control early on.

Counter sniper play is fun, since you have to actually use your brain.

OKW and USF can run snipers down with very good mainline inf. And m20 and even kübel are counters to it.

Imo only players of lower skill level think that snipes are bad for the game.

Lastly, if they were to strong, one would have seen them in the tourneys way more often.

One could try lowering the damage to 40-60 vs infantry shot that I shot does not wipe and add a number of critical kills.

Kind of a mixed bag for me, although I really like some design ideas such as the stationary suppression for all AA units.

Generally, I'm not a fan of the model number restriction to AoE damage since these are kind of counter-intuitive IMHO. I get that this is aimed at adding consistency instead of frustrating one-hit nukes, but I'd rather see other solutions to make explosives less wipey.

Firefly+Churchill = 36popcap

Kv-1+SU-85 = 29popcap

I would argue with these pop costs it doesn't pair well, seven pop is a hell of a lot when you already have bolstered sections eating into pop.

Brit late game needs a popcap rework and a rework to sections and bolster IMO. It's very noticeable in 1vs1s when a good infantry core is key to any game.

That's very debatable.

IMO the Churchill is worse than the KV1 because it doesn't have the damage modifier, has worse armour, has much worse pop cap, worse timing, less AI power and higher cost.

You spend most of the entire time repairing the Churchill unless you have a doctrine with auto repairs.

The only real advantage of the Churchill is the escape smoke + slightly better penetration but that's not enough to compensate for all the weaknesses.
