An example of invention driving the discussion rather than the need
being satisfied.

Simply put, there is absolutely no reason to use a "balanced" line. It
is window dressing for the circuit which IS balanced (and balanced for
no apparent reason for this unbalanced source). Metaphorically, it is
like adding a clutch to an automatic shift. Yes, you can do it. It
might appear to be elegant. It will certainly work. But why?

Try asking why the trappings of this novel design don't bring some
solution in a new thread. You might stumble at offering the problem
it pretends to solve. (I will anticipate it has something to do with
noise, THIS will certainly raise a lot of catcalls.)
