Marianne's decisions were wholly emotional, though, and that is bad. She behaved with no thought of her safety and reputation, or her family's reputation. That doesn't sound like a big deal to a modern audience, but at the time Marianne's ruined reputation could've easily made her family into social outcasts (a bad idea when they're relying upon the generosity of a distant cousin for their home) and her sisters would've found it that much harder to make decent marriages-- the only way for them to ensure their futures.

Yes, but her ending is quite the opposite.There isn't balance of sense and sensibility, it's all sense: he's rich, he never harmed her, everyone wants her to marry him, but it's not something she wanted.
Even Elinor the sensible one had actual, genuine feelings for Edward.
