Default Accurate results but bad imbalances?

Hi, im doing a standard simulation of an axial fan. The simulation results are less than 5% different from the technical specifications of the fan (power, max outlet velocity and average outlet velocity) and the relevant variables of the system (velocity, absolute pressure and fan power) they all converged perfectly to a 100% stable value.

That being said, the simulation imbalances didnīt converge to zero at all (see image attached, final imbalances on the right side).

My question is: can i overlook this imbalances situation due to the fact that the actual results are accurate enough for my needs? If yes, then why it can be overlooked?

Thanks in advance!
