On the CRJ you can feel unbalanced flight immediately. You also need rudder during low speed turns to keep the a/c balanced - if balanced flight is important to you obviously. It seems more and more of the newer pilots don't care.
I think you are making this too technical. After lift-off, maintain balanced flight (first) and runway track (second) using whatever control inputs are necessary.
