Why do both me and the enemy have the same values for the parts that make up military tactics, yet they have so much more total according to the battle? Ie why am I being robbed of 0,6 miltacs here?

Insufficient support ist the reason why. You need at least as much infantry as you have cav.

If he has the cossacks estate happy enough he could have slightly more cav than infantry but in his case he's literally beyond help with that ratio. If I'm playing a european core nation I will just have 4 cavalry total in my army. If I'm playing a muslim nation or a nation with cossacks estates I will go 2/3 my infantry number. Technically you can have 60% cavalry but the problem is that during the battle infantry get chewed up ALOT more and you end up at the tail end of battles losing badly due to the ratio. Keep in mind cannons have absolutely no value to your ratio of cavalry/infantry.

Also they rolled amazingly I would have retreated as soon as possible in that battle and retried the fight after you recooped.
