Of all the components to find fault with on the G Line, this ain't it

assuming they want some sort of commonality with the existing models/ranges means you can swap components between the new line and the old lines.
I might pop into covent garden in the next week or two to see what the fuss is about. -
When I switched my Brompton to Hollowtech (105 5800) and was surprised to find the weight of the components was pretty much identical.
Square taper BBs are still shit but weight isn't the reason why.

£2,500 gravel bike with a square taper BB and crankset. Guess they didn’t want to pay for hollowtech, or wanted the basic model to be maximally heavier than the lighter weight version.
