Why cant my tank just spawn at the frontline, 3 min away from the battle?

To add to this, the only current reason tankers would do so is to disrupt an airbase.

Tankers have the same motivation like fps players or flyboys.
Action and humiliating other players.

Also, some suggest that this will save the flight sim market. You are once again dead wrong. There is what, 3 small competitors in the flight sim industry? Staying niche market is the only chance of survival for MG.

So only a few competitors turns it into a huge business opportunity?
What if there are only 3 competitors because it's an unprofitable market?
If I remember correctly luthier said something about $8M they already invested, if that's correct it's more like 9 by now.
How many copies have they sold?

Another option could be to take $200 for a copy, won't sell for this price though.

And the market for a decent WW2 CA simulation is huge.
