I understand what you are saying, and you make some interesting points. But what if the belt timing was setup using a bad balancer? Everything would look "normal", but could you really say your balancer was "ok"? No, it just verifies that all the marks line up. (Okay, you could counter with "the engine would run like crap, etc...", but I think you get my drift here.)
If I really wanted to know if the marks were correct - without a doubt - I know how I'd do it; anything else would be inference at best.
