Cables: why ever get unbalanced

Are they cheaper? That's the only possible reason I can see, though I realize the advantages are minimized with shorter cables. Am I missing something?
 
They're always a lot cheaper, and that is the main reason I think.

It's worth noting that a TRS cable out of an active guitar, or into any guitar pedal will not generally work, because those types of thing depend on the sleeve of the plug to short the R and S of jack in order to get power at all.
