For the purpose of PPL, CPL & ATPL training using the ball as an indicator of yaw is perfectly adequate
Not only isn't it perfectly adequate, it is completely wrong! The ball is an indicator of slip or skid, not yaw. A balanced turn with a high rate of yaw and the ball in the middle is readily demonstrable.
