Yeah, I dunno. The article supposed that the room's dimensions were the opposite of how you've presented them. I can't remember if it offered any argument to support the position. Maybe someone else read it and remembers.
Anyway, I've been in the no wings camp for a while based on my impressions of Balrogs as a whole, but I can't deny that Tolkien most probably envisioned the Balrog scene with literal wings. It's definitely how I imagined it when I first read LotR.
