So it appears that balancing doesn't really start to occur until it reaches the 14.4 volts, and letting it float there for a while will help re-balance the cells.

Did they give you any idea how long to let it float? Overnight, a few days, a week?

I did a 3rd cycle on one battery with 3 day float and got exactly the same results as 2nd cycle with 1 day float. This on a very good battery.
