Mark, if I feel that the scenario that I am about to play is balanced,
and that I am happy with either side, I choose "no preference" thus
eliminating any possibility ob balance entering the picture.

If one were to try and deliberately get play balance, one would have to
correctly guess which side his opponent wants, pick the same side and
then roll higher than him when they dice for sides.

... uhhhh right, whatever.
