"Faire la part des choses" is more like taking into account every parts of a problem before making a decision. literally, having each parts of a problem separated and judging advantages or disadvantages of each before making a decision. I also heard it said when someone was forced to take a decision knowing there would be bad consequences, as reassuring, like meaning "what ever one choose something bad AND something good comes from every decisions"...
