When the population is as evenly split between the sexes as the continent of Africa already is, neither polyandry nor polygyny or polygamy is going to balance anything.
But if the number of single young male Africans seeking economic migration to other parts of the world continues to rise and the wars continue, you might just need more polygyny.
On a more serious note, the small number of people that would (or indeed already do) observe any of the practices isn't exactly going to make a significant impact other than to a few individuals.
There are already polyamorous relationships.
Just like co-habiting and marriage, surely legally allowing a recognised polyandrous marriage is only giving it legal recognition which TBH it seems that many aren't all that bothered about any way if the number of co-habiting unmarried couples is anything to go by?
FWIW I too think that what is good for the goose ....... but that doesn't mean that I would like to participate.
