Goodness! I am just glad you were not driving and the tire blew out.
Yes, having an alignment and balancing is important for maintaining your tires longer. People often overlook this.

Another very simple trick is doing regular tire rotations is also very important as well and I highly recommend it.

You mean one should not stick to the same set of tires for long? Use them for some time, replace, come back to them later?

No, rotate them around to different positions.
Right front to left rear, left rear to right rear etc.

Yeah, just basically switching front tires to the opposite rear, and rear tires to opposite front. Then after a couple of thousand km, rotate them in a different direction. The intent is to try and get the tires to wear evenly.
