We've had similar arguments when Pershing lost vehicle crew ability.
That turned out to be fine at the end.
It'll be fine for Tiger as well.
OKW one dominated meta so badly, the only situation when you would ever consider different vehicle was if you already had it on field.
It was never supposed to be this answer to all magical wunderwaffe it became.
Command tank that has the no commander upgrade. Let's get rid of the commisar model in that squad and nuke the leutnant for the Germans too for consistency.
The commander was an issue when the tiger was dropping models on at guns when they were trying to move. They'd drop the gun and boom. Since the main gun has been pretty nerfed, it's weird that the commander is still gone. Quad nerfing has never worked.
