Bookie operates the same way regardless if its a line or a future.
They dont want one portion/side having the high percentage of bets.

No shite, half the people in here are still trying to figure out what the hell this means with futures bets

Just not true about the similarity between a future and line.
Also, you are overly simplifying the books business model. Theoretically, yes they would like even action on both sides. In practice, however, that's rarely the case. Generally it's more about hanging good numbers.
