Yeah its pointless, but if you got only 4.4mm ic available at the time, atleast you can still connect. With Mojo2 you arent going to get balanced anyway, since it only has unbalanced outputs, but being anble to use an adapter to still connect it with a balanced input of the amp, is still viable, if you got no other cable or option..it would sound just like connecting to the 3.5 unbalanced input no? I was merely asking about the possible damage and to see if this is even an option.Reversing the concept and using the adapter on an input as in the case above that started the conversation is obviously technically different. In that case the adapter will connect the 4.4mm negative input of the amplifier to the ground of the 3.5mm source device but that is the input side so essentially all that is happening is the negative side of the amplifier doesn't receive the negative signal, the voltage isn't being received by the amplifier and there is no short That isn't dangerous but as we both stated isn't going to make proper use of the balanced architecture anyway so it a pointless exercise.
