I agree that CBs need a lot more, but WRs needs some, lets say if CBs needs 80, WRs should need around 50.
Sadly there are no crazy sideline receptions in GLB, which would be the main area where WRs would need a lot of balance to be able to make the play, and falling off after catch is actually a good thing on GLB unlike in the NFL, so yeah receivers don't need a lot of balance.
Also CBs don't bump the WR here before the route, another situation where the WR would require balance.
The only problem with your post is the beginning where you pick out of thin air the numbers 80 and 50. It's like when bhall kept saying that Quickness should never be higher than Sprinting. It's a mental block not a mathematical one.
You need more Balance depending on two things:
1.) How may degrees your typical turns take and
2.) How often per game your making that turn.
CBs make 180 degree turns on virtually every passing play whereas the WRs are turning 45 degrees or less. A 180 degree turn is dramatically more difficult than a 45 degree turn. The difference isn't linear either. It's not 4x more difficult - it's more than that. Perhaps even 10X.
Look at the Coaches tape and how often a NFL QB is looking off the Safety waiting for him to even turn his hips slightly in the wrong direction. It's literally one of the biggest things a QB looks for. Correcting that slight turn causes the safety to be late on a deep pass.
You don't balance the position matchup be forcing every skill to fit some mental model in your head which feels nice.
WRs running Go's which require zero turning while matching up against a CB which has to do a 180 degree hip turn is a typical matchup. You balance the effectiveness of the play through other measures besides the Balance skill of each player.
