Mechs are quite viable, the issue with low profile vs high profile is one of defense vs offense. a taller vehicle, especially to the degree of a battlemech against a tank, has a more commanding field of fire but presents an easier target, while the shorter vehicle is more easily confounded by obstacles as it attacks but is also harder to target. Mechs also have the added benefit of being less susceptible to HEAT munitions that intend to cause internal trauma after penetration, which can knock out a tank in one blow. Because of the highly decentralized nature of the mech's systems it can take penetrating hits and have large chunks of its innards ravaged and still remain functional.
