There is a tendency to take more stuff as you get more risk averse with age and experience so it's good to manage that and avoid the weight creeping up too much.
But I think bulk, number of items that need to be handled and packing efficiency are more important than weight. Chris's article quantifies that well - he always takes loads of stuff and manages to do OK!
