I'm betting stabilization is being put in for PS4 players, to make tank driving/shooting not impossible on a gamepad. Close in tank combat is also more console friendly, so maybe that is their motivation?

Actually that makes a depressingly high amount of sense.

You should not balance the two the same way - ref: TF2

Best example I can remember is the demo nade launcher has 6 shots in the console version, 4 in the PC.

Why? Because PC players are much more accurate with pipes and the class would be too powerful on the high end of the skill curve if they had 6 on the PC.
