Perhaps you should share these facts? So far you have only justified your opinion. For these to be considered fact, you would need to point to research demonstrating that this balancing technique is superior to the alternatives.

That said, I am confident that I can say that objectively, balancing a game for PVP and balancing it for PVE are different. My expectation is that this means that you can't just focus on one of these experiences, but you must actively put effort into balancing and tuning both experiences, and that this potentially has the effect of squaring (not just doubling) the difficulty of balancing the game if you plan to use identical mechanics for both experiences.
