What's to balance?
Safety first...

There is no "balance". Safety must be achieved. Therefore, being "on time" is not part of the decision.

The distinction would be that if the conditions were judged to be not safe then they won't go.
That doesn't prevent some unforeseen situation from developing or human error.
But you'll find domestic US passenger aviation to be very safe on the whole with conservative approach to safety. General aviation gives the pilot a little more leeway, it is just them being responsible for themselves without the passengers.
You can see it when snow comes to an airport like Chicago, there are plenty of cancellations, no one is shy about canceling if needed.
