If you crank the math on a 200A house the probability of combinations that exceed 4500w (or even 5000w) on each leg is very high, the Growatt 12kw has no balance either and the sheer capacity increase tends to safeguard he risk better, maybe if Solark delivers a 12kw inverter in the 12kw unit it would address the issue going forward, or a balance transformer for that matter, they are cheap ya know.
As someone who dragged my family through the R+D mud going off grid I can say that is 100% believable and I have done worse in the name of science, not everybody has the luxury of buying a second inverter, the cobbler's kids never have shoes bro, -James
