>1: The Mind Machine Interface. When you allow a person to control their machine at the speed of thought, it is easier to train someone to control a mostly humanoid body instead of a tank or a helicopter. So what if the body is thirty feet tall?

Mechs are prevalent because of the mind-machine interface...but then AI that can control vehicles is invented. And AI has no need of 'familiarity', its coding prefers the most efficient platform for the job at hand, so you end up tanks and planes that have no need whatsoever for ergonomics or crew-comfort.

This is fun too though. A tank, built for giants, would naturally be fucking huge, so mechs would have a role as the 'infantry' of the setting
