I am concerned with AC as well, and am always destroying copper/silver because of this. Even if I am not tanking in the group, if it comes down to it, that extra AC could make the difference between life and death, and at this point in my career (27), I will most likely have to eat that death without a res.
IIRC, the AC on your armor represents mitigation, while the bonus you get represents your ability to not be hit at all. You visible AC value is a combination of these two numbers. The hit you take to your AC for weight is supposed to come off the second value. Of course I could be misremembering terribly after so many years.
