The people in the tank have to get out sometime. Once out, they're vulnerable to rifles, arrows, Molotov cocktails, and a lot of other things, including garrotes. Don't become so fixated on the tanks that you forget the people riding in them.
Read my whole post. Do not fixate on one sentence. I understand the big picture. The rifle comment was only in re the tanks and set up the solution (EFP’s). I well understand that the organic units utilized as targets will also stop a tank.
