I get the feeling that we have come full circle. Oh well, onward...

My point is this - it seems Balin, a senior [ but not The Sr.]member of the House of Durin got chumped by Dain, who decided to make Erebor his Kingdom, even though he would have been like Thorin "king" of Durin's folk wherever he was.

Well, since he was not The Senior member of the royal family it's kind of hard to say that he was chumped. That's the way things go in a monarchy. Those who are the sovereign get to do whatever they like, those who aren't get to like it or lump it.
Maybe Balin got bored and decided that he needed more adventure in his life.
