It is all about getting even money on both sides. Nothing more.

That is a comical myth. They are trying to extract the most money for the best value for their books. They often have overexposure on games and do not move lines to square them up. Also, under your scenario that have real risk of being muddled by sharps if they move lines just to try to square up lines. They are doing way more than trying to have equal action On both sides.

There’s more to it.
For example - over 80% of public money is on lsu and it still has not moved above a field goal and probably won’t.
Every week there are spreads that get 80+ % of public money . The lines don’t always simply move to find money.
