Default Corner balancing and suspension question

I've been doing some searching on this subject now that I have coilovers and I am turning into a track junkie.

So would it be a waste of time to corner balance my ride if I didn't upgrade the front control arms so all for corners can be adjusted?

I'm booked for a corner balance next week but I might hold off if this is something that is recommended.

Default Corner balancing will help

A corner balance will help significantly in getting the car's weight balanced out. Keep your appointment and have it done.

Default I'm told a proper corner balance cannot be obtained due to the undajustable swyabar links

They make front ones for a B6 but not rear ones.

Only front and rear available are for a B5.

They can corner balance with the swaybars unattached but it will throw it off when they reattach them. So what to do?

The best we can do is a cross weight w/ the links attached. I have decided to skip it for now.
