Unlike a tank, which has a single rotating turret, a mecha like the one he designed could in theory possess dexterity and aiming maneuverability akin to a human; which is to say, much greater than a wheeled vehicle. With sufficient technology in balance and quick movements, the mecha would also be perfect for urban combat as well as taking cover and evasion.
A tank has greater carrying capacity, true, but it also cannot pick up a magazine and reload itself, duck behind a ruined building, shoot around corners, move objects, travel across starkly varying heights in a field, and climb things.
