As for the original question, "Is a levelling ball head tripod desirable?"  I don't see the point.

It's extremely easy to get any tripod top exactly level by adjusting the leg length, takes but a few seconds to adjust.  Probably quicker than using the 'Quick Ball' given that adjusting the quick ball is an additional step.  I can't understand the need (for the quick ball).  I adjust the tripod head for level almost every time I erect my tripod, unless of course I want it out of level.

Still got to try that feature out for real in the wild.
The tripod was a steal at £90 inc bag and delivered to my door.
I couldnt get a replacement Manfrotto, Benro, etc for £100.  Then I would need a head for it.
