Ye, that's fair, although their goal with Evolved mode in general (rather than the tank split in particular) is to give jobs their identity back. We've seen one tank, we have only the vaguest idea what they want offtanks to do and no idea what they are doing with the 3 other individual tank jobs, for now I'll just wait and let them cook.
