Without the "balance", this would be an article critiquing the Harris policy plan. That type of article comes off as just criticism and negative, no likely benefit to the candidate.
But including the absurd alternative, despite seeming like an attempt at normalizing it, instead feels like a Modest Proposal. It allows people to compare and contrast minor issues with a policy against the absolute ridiculousness of the other candidate.
