Default Baluns?

You would do well to agree that a well-designed W2DU balun
operating at 14 MHz is choking the heck out of the 14 MHz
common-mode current in order to achieve the balun function.

You seem to have the IEEE definitions of differential
signals and common-mode signals exactly reversed. Because
of that misconception, might you be the one who doesn't
understand how baluns work?
