The CAAD12 disc is MUCH heavier than the CAAD12. I've got the 105 disc as my winter bike and while it's nice to ride it'd never be a summer replacement for my Evo.
The CAAD12 disc frameset is actually lighter than the CAAD12 rim frameset.
No way. Certainly not frame/fork together. Not a snowball's chance in hell.
I would say the disc and non-disc CAAD12 frame is the same weight, although the disc version is a bit lighter: the difference is 4 g (1098 vs 1094 g). The fork makes the difference: my uncut non-disc fork was 358 g and according to the forum posts the disc version is 430 g uncut.
I don't think that 70 g makes any real difference when climbing.
