One of the reasons that many line balancing calculators come up with figures that are so short is that they are based on line resistance figures that don't match well with real life figures. My experience has been that most 3/16" ID line has slightly less resistance than even the lowest published figures found online. Another reason is that the calculators were originally designed for commercial draught systems, where the beer is usually kept close to freezing, and where it's important to be able to fill a pint as fast as possible while still getting a good pour.
I highly suggest making your lines extra long. The only downside to lines that are "too long" is a slightly slower pour, but it has the benefit of reducing foaming issues greatly. It also enables you to serve beers at all sorts of carbonation levels, and still get a good pour even with the highly carbed ones. It's also much easier to trim a foot or two off of a line that's too long than it is to grow a line that's too short. Since I'm not running a busy bar or restaurant out of my house, if I have time to drink a beer then I also have an extra few seconds to wait for it to pour.
