I think maybe you omitted how you handle HDMI signals. What you describe isn't optimal for that. You're telling us one of two things: that you want to run HDMI balun signals through splices, which is recommended against, or that you're putting the baluns on the wall and then running longer HDMI cables than would otherwise be needed from the wall to the rack to the components.
He stated that for category cable used for HDMI, he does not terminate those to the wall and thus those are brought into the rack.
As far as running HDMI HD-BaseT through keystones. I have done that several times using shielded cable with shielded keystones with no issues. Or a shielded keystone at the panel and shielded connector to plug into HD-BaseT received at display.
Having to deal with longs runs of category cable, for a future HDMI use, is many times problematic.
