How should DBD be balanced?

So I've been very observant and been seeing post after post and they all seem to have the same common complaint. "This game is being balanced for noobs!" now I can see how this can get problematic. However, at it's core I can't see DBD as a competitive game and I know there was an esports push but it failed and in my opinion trying to make a game such as DBD an esport was dumb because at it's core it isn't balanced.

But I digress and I'd like to again talk about how this game should be balanced? I know in EVERY community people don't like it when you bring up the casual audience and how some developers will try to appeal towards that audience which would make most fans hate the developers and any future balance changes mainly because it's for the "casuals" you know the "plebs" and most rather have the game balanced at the highest competitive level so that skill shines threw but again a game like DBD has some odd balance and I've gotta ask and discuss how can we even balance a game like DBD?

Killer vs Survivors , this concept can't be taken too competitively because already you have a factor of one player being stronger than everyone else and it isn't an even playing field and it isn't meant to we are simulating a horror experience but no one ever and I mean ever tries to balance it as such instead it's always 'balance for the casual audience!" or "balance it at the esports level!" which I feel neither really work... call me dim call me whatever you'd like but I feel if we go down a competitive path we will achieve a sense of 'balance" but no one will like it because well both parties will still be "meh" and the odds will still be in the survivors favor shockingly and you'll probably ask yourselves "how can that be right?!" well again it's 1v4 and competitive games and competitive team based games share an importance with communication which normally leads to victory so what do we do? We make it so that it's harder to communicate with your fellow survivors? Which already doesn't seem right and isn't balancing for the competitive level and you can even say it's for the "casual" level and this is where I see more and more of the issue because we can't tell what DBD wants to be and well how would you all suggest balancing the game? Would it be better if killers were just OP or would you want that golden pipe dream balance of where 2 survivors will live and 2 will die? Because for me and call me cold but I want 1 survivor surviving maybe on a good day 2 because again this is a "horror" game and I wish it could be treated as such more but due to the online factor it wont and I'd like more logical approaches because in a real horror scenario with these killers most of the survivors die if not all of them and maybe right there is the key factor we are still too divided and I feel some of us have to accept reality and our own faults because even with competitive games most don't ever admit their own mistakes and to this day I see plenty of survivors doing just that; not reading perks and what they do also not being patient but also I feel that some killers are in the same boat.

(Too long to read? Straight to the point than...)
How would you balance the game? What's the golden balance and where would you say this game would be healthy?
