Moving stuff from a bike bag to your jersey pockets doesn't reduce the total weight. I don't like riding with my jersey pockets stuffed. Trying to reduce the total weight by 5% (~15 lbs) is pretty difficult and expensive if you can't take any weight off the motors. Our GVW (gross vehicle weight) isn't very low but leaving an extra tube behind isn't worth the cost/benefit ratio to me.
