a solution is to place those elements not to be seen in plan views on a layer that is not visible in plan layer combinations.

Use different layer combination for 3D. In fact the plan view combo that hides the balusters is only really needed for output (assigned to plan views in the view map) unless you are really bothered seeing them in plan while you're working on the model.

You might also consider altering the plan representation:

Bring the wall profile to the front in display order.

Give the wall profile an opaque cut fill -- see attached.

Define the wall presentation as "Symbolic cut"
