Description
In DOCS-1555 we changed our recommendation for enabling balancing from sh.startBalancer() to sh.setBalancerState(true). In SERVER-21766, however, kevin.pulo says that support engineers still recommend sh.startBalancer(). We should have a consistent story here. Either we like the behavior sh.startBalancer() has of waiting for a balancer round to commence, in which case we should update the docs to recommend its use one again, or we don't like that behavior, in which case we should change it and still update the docs to recommend it's use. Either way we should be moving towards recommending sh.startBalancer()
