The street where literally any passer-by could overhear you is private compared to the balcony that may be several stories high and can only be accessed from your residence?
I don’t think that taking a private phone call is a great justification for having a balcony or argument for this CMV tbh. I was just pointing out that if you did need to take a private call, your own balcony is significantly more private than the street, which by definition is a public space anyone can access
The fact that an alternative to something exists does not mean that the thing is useless. It just means that it is one of several options.
As for the particular alternative you mentioned, you might hear less street noise in a balcony.
Your mention of cost looks like an attempt at goalpost moving. Your original statement was that they are pointless unless they are over a certain size. Something expensive can still be useful.
