Dave:
Personally, I've always thought that balanced was cool. I was using
balanced lines 20+ years ago. The sense that I had from my fellow hams at
the time was that practically everybody else thought that they were
decidedly uncool.
It is only in the last year or so that I've noticed them becoming rediscovered.

Side note: I dimly recall that there is an outfit in Germany that has
been making balanced tuners since before balanced became cool.
Balanced didn't become cool; balanced always was cool. Balanced is only
being rediscovered by the generation (or two (or three)) that thought that
coax was the only means for feeding a wire.
