It may not seem like much but when you are trying to lift that baby into position using only your arm strength, for me it was noticeably heavier.
What, a vendor's listings and specifications aren't 100% accurate? I'm shocked.

I've installed a 9" center section a couple of times using nothing but arm strength, and neither installation was a lot of fun.
