Hurray! The btrfs balance eventually ran through after almost exactly 2 weeks.
It didn't get down to 0:
[1189505.152717] btrfs: found 60527 extents
[1189505.440565] btrfs: relocating block group 3910731300864 flags 20

iostat reckons 9TB have been written to disk in the whole
process (4.5TB read from them (!?)).
There hasn't been any change in allocation though:
