One thing lot of aerobatic guys do NOT do , is to balance the airframe about the prop axis
Right, and tuning aerodynamically isn't anything like sticking nails into wingtips based on how the sucker tips when you grab it by the nose.
I actually know a couple of aerobatic guys who in fact did balance with weight, but others would not wish for lateral balancing by the addition of mass. "would wish for"..... Don't know any who ever did wish for or add weight. Always adjusted stuff, like adding differential.
