Not personally myself, but talked personally to people who have. In your situation I'd totally do it.
That said, you can book in advance for way less than $20K US pp. Check out, for example, HX (Hurtigruten Expeditions until about a year ago).
BTW, you might scoff at the idea of a balcony cabin - who wants to sit on a balcony in that weather? - but it's worth it, if the added cost isn't outrageous, for the full-wall window.
