It is unbalanced compared to most the other cultural choices. Warrior, Engineer, Merchant are arguably on equal footing, I think, but stuff like artists, traders, and (god forbid) renegades don't even compare. So in that context, yes, it is unbalanced. Does it break the game? No. Does it reduce your number of significant strategic choices? Yes.
