In what way is a balanced cable design objectively worse?

There is no issue with outside noise/interference to be solved (the point of balanced cabling) and you double the thd and noise floor with the extra amp per channel.
You need 4x the power for the same volume and you might run into issues with the amp driving too low an impedance.
