If you actually look at it, every country built the best possible tank for their needs.
US: has to go across every ocean and fight in every environment from tundra to jungle. Made to be shipped easily in a box and have easily maintained parts.
USSR: tanks don't last that long, so why build a tank that will last a long time if it takes too long to build, numbers are needed, make them quick first, good comes later.
Germany: Barely any oil or people, so therefore it doesn't matter if we could build hundreds of steel boxes if we only have the crew and fuel for one. So build one tank good and have your fingers crossed.
UK: Limited in what they can make on their island without having factory tooling getting blown up in the Atlantic, decide that they can make more weaker engines than a few strong engines, especially since ground war only happens after the navy and air forces can actually get the ground forces where they need to go and therefore the spitfires and destroyers get the priority. What can be made with the capacity that is left over is the infantry support idea.
Italy: Big tanks are useless in the mountains, and their industry couldn't support making those anyway. Tankettes are perfect for mountainous terrain.
Japan: Lol, who cares, China doesn't have a tank. China doesn't even have any armor piercing guns. Seriously, a few of those Chinese guys have spears.
