I always thought adding more tank classes in the game would help alleviating the tank shortage issue.
In the short term maybe. People will want to try them, including existing tanks. It won't just draw dps to it.

After people have gotten to try it, it'll just go back to what we have now. An extra tank class and about the same number of tanks we had before.

If they make one so fun/strong/aesthetically pleasing it just means existing tanks will have to change mains.
