The comparison is between tanks and artillery and not tanks and infantry. Tanks have more defense than both infantry and artillery. That is fact, not opinion. Also, comparing based on number of units is relevant when supply is based on transports since transports are limited in the number of units each one can carry. I explained this in my answer.

Comparing based on number of units is nonsense, since there are no stacking limits in the game -- the only limit on the number of units is how many you can afford
