I don't have the XM1, but I've played most top tier M1s plenty, yes.
>It's fucking ridiculous, every shot to the front of the tank disables your turret horizontal rotation.
You're overstating that a bit. That happens to every tank with a turret basket (the Russian/chink ones instead just die, or at the very least lose their autoloader) in almost the same way. The M1s have the added issue of the wrongly modelled hydraulic pump fucking your turret rotation, but that really doesn't happen all that often, and if you're honest, most of the time a shot that fucks that gets at the very least your turret basket too anyways.

It's funny that he has above average stats in the T-90A, probably just because the mobility of that thing is so atrocious he can't get himself killed quickly.
>And that's not a sin, every dad who loves military vehicles could be in just to play and watch explode their favourite military model.
I mean sure, but the guy obviously has thousands of matches, so it's not like a lack of time and experience could explain his atrocious performance.

High tier is much, much simpler in terms of weakspot knowledge (lower front plate, breech, turret ring from the front, if shooting from the side nail the turret crew). Aiming/knowing when to push is also a lot more forgiving due to the stabilizer, and you no longer need to know your ranges since the LRF does all the work for you. If your reaction times are slow you can always just camp and nail the people that will inevitably push into your field of view eventually.
And the guy skipped low/medium tiers.
