Waste your our time perfectly balancing your driveline if it makes you happy, but decades of FE experience has demonstrated that close has no downside.

Agreed. I've found that spending two hours on balancing a prop perfectly is 1.75 hours of my life wasted. I've seen no difference in one that's perfect and one that's close....performance wise or reliability wise. If it's badly balanced it could contribute to premature wear on your stut bushings. Can I prove that? No. Lol. Theory.
