I was a burly 6’2” 12 months ago and I’ll acknowledge that the last year has added a degree of heft (but, somewhat bewilderingly, not a commensurate amount of height). I understand that for a sector of society I have never met that these are desirable qualities.
Returning to seat posts, I’d prioritise strength over weight so the one I inelegantly linked to may be sub-optimal for intended use.
I'd be more concerned with the post creaking than cracking. My experience being no flyweight was the former, albeit with one occasion of the latter due to user error
