I guess that is a matter of opinion.  The factory didn't think it was worth
it.  But then thye had a cost target.  If you have a cost target you may
want to forgo it.  Especially if you plan on driving in a sedate manner. 
If, however,  you like to spin the motor up pulling away from stops, you
may want to consider it.

Personally, I wouldn't spend $1000+ rebuilding an engine without spending
the extra $100 or so to get it balanced.  Just because.
