There's just so much wrong in that post that I feel like I have to go point by point.
1) Allies have cheaper upgrades, yes, but they also are four (!) days behind Pan Asian in research levels. Also, you never want to steadily upgrade units, you want to chunk it into as few upgrades as possible. Light tanks only have 5 levels; if you're upgrading more than twice, you're wasting resources.
2) Production speed is not that much of an advantage unless you're constantly producing units, because it helps you maximize your consumption of resources. I doubt this is the case in most games.
3) Speed is one of the few things that light tanks actually do well, and enable it to outrun stacks that might otherwise threaten it. A ~30% speed difference is enormous and means Pan Asian tanks can outrun basically anything.
As for Pan Asian LTs, yes they do have less health. Fair point. However, they're also 15% stronger against the main targets for LTs (light armor) AND 15% stronger against the secondary targets for LTs, unarmored. Additionally, with plains being the most common terrain on most maps, Pan Asian tanks are likely to take advantage of their bonus terrain bonus a decent amount of the time (made easier by their speed advantage).
2. i have been spamming LT's and Naval units the whole game and i just won a WaW
3. Speed really does not matter, what do i need to out run? just call more LT's
Pan Asian countries have like no flatlands to start with, and neither does most of the surrounding areas. therefore the Allies have the advantage if they invade. the bonus also means nothing if they are fighting superior numbers, since the theoretical Allied player could produce more than the Pan-Asian player.
