You may find that a 90 HP tractor can give you more up-time and output on a small square baler compared to a 50 HP tractor. You can rake heavier windrows to match the full capacity of the baler without worrying about the capacity of baler tractor. A JD 4020 or Case 930 on a Deere 336 baler would power through some tough spots at full speed where a smaller 50 HP tractor would need to down shift or the shear pin would break. This also makes a difference when baling uphill pulling a nearly full bale wagon on a heavy windrow. The downside is that people handling the bales have to handle more bales per hour.
Fuel cost of the larger tractor depends on the number of hours used annually. The extra fuel cost is much smaller if the tractors is only used 50 to 100 hours a year compared to over 500 hours per year. Do you have other tractors to handle the lighter chores like raking and mowing? Does the larger tractor have a faster road gear for hauling bale wagons on roads?
