The whole opening post is espousing some one sized fits all nonsense that honestly I can't stand.
I prefer a game start with some level of balance. Its a hell of a lot easier for a GM to destroy balance than create it. Unbalanced game systems pretty much only support GMs who want unbalanced games or really really experienced GMs who can balance it themselves. A balanced game system can support either.
That said, I'm not for perfect balance either. That isn't something that can be achieved.
Basically, stop trying to pretend that anyone who doesn't play the way you do is wrong. The idea that balance is "illusion" is bullshit. It may be irrelevant to you, but if you don't care about unbalancing things, you have a lot of freedom to change whatever you want.
