I'm going to go with the school of thought that there is no right or wrong in this argument. In my opinion if you meet up with someone and decide to tell each other what army you are going to play and then make a list it is fair because you both can tailor. I like balanced armies myself but just because I think they present a better looking army with a wide variety of the troops available.

One thing that is not fair however is if you walk in with a balanced army and your opponent finds out what you have and pulls out a ready made tailor army and tries to hide it from you. Bottom line is either Tailor list vs. Tailor list or Blind List vs. Blind List. All is fair in love and imaginary war.
