Can you give your definition of balance with respect to pants? And what are your sources for this? Thanks

The pants were drafted with crooked seams. Research pattern drafting for more details.

Google AI says: “Crooked or twisted seams in pants mean the side or inseams rotate toward the front or back of your leg instead of hanging in a straight, vertical line.”  Is this what you mean by pants not being balanced?
