Not so dumb. You save the weight* of an extraneous** kidney.
* the average weight of an adult human kidney is approximately one-quarter pound
** presuming you started with 2 kidneys
When you weigh every part you take off another bike to see if any is 1g lighter than that fitted to your bike.

I WANT TO WEIGH EVERYTHING.
and when I'm considering a purchase of (virtually) anything, I spend some time trying to find a verified weight of the item, no matter what it is.
