What is the fascination with classes?

@Bolvard Mackay working together with Angel is team play. And that is a good thing.
The unlimited explosives guy is nothing new, what you describe is similar to a BF3 or BF4 support.
Falck is a BF4 Assault Combat Medic, so nothing new.
When you speak about aggressive tank I imagine you in your tank against 2 squads of enemies. And in that situation you deserve to be devastated, because you forgot to forgot to bring your squad to fill the other 3 seats in your tank, or you decided to equip weapon pod and weapon station with anti-vehicle equipment instead of anti-infantry capabilities.
So it shouldn't be 1 vs 8 it should be 4 vs 8, and stupidly driving in a group of enemies to run them over, can work, but most likely gets you killed.
The BF3 the engineer is the one class definetely equipped with anti-vehicle equipment, the BF4 engineer is the most likely candidate. But the BF4 support and BF4 recon may carry enough C4 to blow you up into the sky as well.
And you are sad that the BF3/BF4 tanker lone-wolf no longer is a valid option, because everyone else is lone-wolfing, and most of the examples you bring are results of teamplay?
That doesn't make classes better than specialists, it only makes it maybe more predictable. You now need to adjust your world view, and learn that everyone you harass with a tank could bite back.

Yep.
I'm a hardcore tanker and with each new battlefield game I have to learn new tactics based on the AT threats in the latest game.
It's not too dissimilar from BFV where due to the all class skins I was already treating every enemy infantry as a threat.
In 2042 as a successful tanker who doesn't get blown up quickly you need to be patient and just observe using the main map, the mini map, 3rd POV and 1st person POV.
Then you can make your move with some degree of confidence you're going to be successful in achieving your goal, whether that be ambushing an enemy tank or infantry or helping your team take or defend a flag.
