This is more nit-picky than anything else, but you can definitely corner balance a car without adjustable drop links. You (maybe) can't have a corner balanced car with no preload in the swaybars though. That's more being pedantic than anything else.
Corner balancing is like fixing a wobbly chair. Raise the low corner. Since a car is on moving suspension, and it's not perfectly symmetrical, you need scales and you get the cross weights to add up, but it's pretty much the same thing conceptually. It makes the car handle as equally as possible in LH turns as it does RH turns.
It's nice to have done, but it's not magic. It's really only noticeable if you happen to set it up initially really wrong, or you are a very observant driver.
The stiffer the springs, the easier it is to screw up the corner balance.
