is bronze worth the plat / weight?

Not really, no. It's barely better than banded and it's much heavier. People mostly use it because it looks nicer.
If you have the extra weight tolerance then sure use a few of the high AC pieces but I think wearing a full set of the stuff is generally a mistake unless you're an Ogre maybe.
To make matters worse though, the large pieces of bronze are more difficult to obtain and those are the races who are more likely to be able to use it.
Dwarves are really in the best position for bronze armor since they have a nice starting strength score and small bronze is the most common. Once people start hunting in Mistmoore the server will be flooded with the stuff. Also, small bronze weighs a bit less than the medium or large pieces (but so does banded).
If you really wanted to try to pick up some more pieces of bronze for cheap, then heading to Mistmoore is probably your best bet. People will gladly sell you pieces to get rid of the weight.
