Although it is true the Glukkons employed Kintos to haul heavy cargo about on their heads, they soon realised the futility of their efforts, given the Kintos' bizarre phobia, and gave up. Kintos are safe for the moment, but how long will it be before they are under attack again from the greedy industrial families?
Dark Xinos - I understand why you can imagine a Kinto not to be able to balance, but if you look you'll see Farzad has even been kind enough to draw in the line of balance to illustrate that.
About those small toes, Kintos use them to tackle surfaces most races would slip off of without the aid of Klimb Java. Those sharp and strong picks can deep deep into solid rock allowing Kintos to scale vertical cliffs with ease. They could, physically, also 'walk' across a cave ceiling, but their fear of anything above their heads prevents this.
