Well first, the iirc, the prophecy never said how permanent said balance would be.
Well at the time Qui-Gon revealed his thoughts on Anakin to the Jedi Council, the Sith had supposedly been extinct for a thousand years. The Dark Side was just beginning to rear its head again at that point. So I would imagine the Jedi must have believed the balance would be quite permanent, otherwise they wouldn't have been as intrigued by the news as they were.
If Rey was abandoned on the planet of Jakku at the age of 5-8 and her abandonment was a direct result of the destruction of Luke's Jedi order by the Dark Side, then that would mean the balance Vader provided at the end of Return of the Jedi lasted no more than 16-19 years after the fall of the Empire. That's 981-984 fewer years of peace then the time between the first fall of the Sith and the events of Phantom Menace.
What a wasted prophecy if that's the case.

I'm pretty sure Jedi could fall to the Dark Side without becoming a Sith. Also, other media (The Clone Wars cartoon) brings in other Dark Side users that aren't Sith. Which makes sense when dealing with something like the Force on large scales of both time and space. Someone somewhere is going to use it a different way.

The Jedi thought that the Sith ended with Darth Bane, but in reality the Sith just went into hiding (using the rule of two) while they tried to figure out a way to defeat the Jedi, and gain control of the galaxy. They were never eliminated, they just weren't "seen" by the Jedi.
