Your assumption is incorrect.  A nutritionally well-balanced meal doesn't
imply equal quantities of all nutrients. It implies appropriate
quantities.

Similarly, a great method balance does not imply equal quantities of all
methods. It depends on what the methods are, and what they allow you to
achieve.  In the classic Pipe cyclic 6 maximus composition, changing
things to increase the quantity of the link method would not "improve the
balance".

But to get there would remove all of then goodies in the existing
composition! I fear we're in a state of mutual incomprehension :-)
