Unbalanced reed will break-in in a uneven fashion and your embouchure can only work for one giving vibration pattern. You need to bite to a degree on an unbalanced reed so it will break down and wear out much more quickly.
That being said I want reeds that are a bit too hard to begin with so I can balance them and leave a little bit off more than I'm fully comfortable with so I can break-in the reed in a uniform fashion and it will feel comfortable after the break-in process.
