Balancing is semi automatic and nearly always demands some tweaks. Using columnsets for a large document that has to flow automatically is therefore debatable. Regular multi columns or in mkiv mixed-columns are a better choice then. You need to keep in mind that tex has no concept of columns so it is faked by using a virtual page nofcolumns * text height. Anyway, as columnsets are supposed to cooperate with grid mode, any messing with the lineheight will interfere. Normally a document has a consistent lineheight everywhere.
