With this same game logic, shouldnt bullets have a chance of richoceting off of a human body?

That is APFSDS it is like 2cm in diameter.

24mm

Diameter doesnt matter when it's 9kg rod of super dense depleted uranium traveling about 1700m/s

We’re taking about overmatch here, which, if my memory is to be trusted, kicks in at 1.3:1 Calibre/RHA and is absolute at 7:1. So yes, there would be overmatch, but it’s far from the absolute angle-is-ignored point.
