It's not as though adventurers and non abyssals never enter the abyss. Also, tons of abyssal creatures get summoned, and know that summoning is a threat.  I imagine demons talk to one another about these things. I also would have to wonder how a Balor got to his station without knowing that he can be summoned by clerics and wizards. On top of all of that, there is the fact that demons of all sorts have the goal of corrupting mortals...and so have an inordinate focus on them.  I think I might even go so far as to say that Balors specifically know a TON about the capabilities of humans, particularly those likely to rise to high levels of power (the kind that can summon them and the most worthy/valuable to tempt to evil). It is their job to do this.</blockquote>
