Balance it how you will, but only four palantirs able to be used will create a ton of friction, and having them common as Gondor Towns would create atomic bombs. Personally, I think they are entirely unnecessary overall. You're right, there is a balancing point, but it sits closer to lore and not towards gameplay. With vague lore such as the Half-Trolls, Harad, and Rhun, we can afford a lot of creativity, but with Palantiri, it is at it is, and it should stay that way.
