BiS usually doesn't usually balance your stats. It's about minmaxing.
Minimising the stats you don't want while maxing out the ones you do.

If you only want it so you can manage easy content with even greater ease, I can see why you'd find difficult content much more frustrating.
Honestly, the difference in most sets for the full BiS and being full tomestone gear is minimal expecially for someone who isn't going ahead with more challenging content, you'd be fine with the max ilvl gear from tomestones. Don't stress over content you don't enjoy.
