If Churchill had been on top on the issue he should have ordered Monty to re-equip the Czech brigade with Shermans and then "loan" it to Patton with a wink and a nod some time in March. The Czechs wouldn't have stopped at Pilsen, and Patton would have been obliged to send the rest of 3rd Army into Prague to "rescue" them.
