I might also add that I come at this from a perspective influenced by Taoism and the Yijing and so I perceive balance not as a static moment but a poised equilibrium of potential and inevitable change/readjustment/reattainment.
Also, this notion is very much inspired by my assessment of my own "imbalances" - I tend toward air and get lost in the clouds, gravitate toward water and its connection with meaning, but am frequently befuddled by fire (hang back, am unsure of my desires, and flow downhill or disperse completely) which makes it hard for my meaning-making to be manifested through earth.
But perhaps my comment reflects my very imbalance (I struggle with "I want optimal, but optimal what?" and then turn to look at the big picture from air's height) and so this algorithm might mimic that.
