PR is supposed to be a realistic game. What is the point to put a Pershing in Normandy? It's because a Sherman can't face a Tiger? It's because they think that the Sherman sucks? I don't know :/.
As I recall, that is their exact stated reason for doing so, as well as their reasons for many other unrealistic things in the game. They overruled historical accuracy with balance and maps based off pop culture, not historical fact. It's the way they have decided to build the game, but it clashes heavily with the notion of them being a realism game and a historically accurate depiction.
