Hello
Multiple other 10.7 tanks were also increased to 11.0, including the T-80U, T-80UK, T-72B3, Leopard 2PL, M1A1 HC, M1A1 AIM, Challenger 2 and also several other lighter vehicles. The changes were across all nations as a wider step to increase the top ceiling of the BRs. These tanks will face the same opponents they already did before, with the exception of the weaker 9.7s.
As we mentioned already in the response you highlighted, changes to improve the Ariete are planned for the next major. We will follow the stats of all vehicles at the top end and make any required changes in the next BR update.
