Weight doesn't really matter if you are twinked. At least not from levels 1-52. I was usually at 50+ stones on my Iksar Monk, and he tore through content anyway, getting ~1 level per hour.
If the AC reduction from weight does start to matter, it is when you are in your mid to high 50s. By then you should be able to get better items anyway.
One reason for this is worn AC gets hardcapped at lower levels. The formula for the low level worn AC hardcap is 6 * level + 25. I did parsing on a level 5 character to confirm this. My Monk has around 145 Worn AC, not including the iksar bonus. This means he would be hard capped on AC from levels 1-20, so losing a bit of AC from having extra weight is not really affecting your AC anyway in that level range. Like at level 10 you would be hard capped at 85 AC, so it doesn't matter if your 145 worn AC becomes 130 worn AC. Both of those numbers would be clamped to 85.
When you are levels 21-50, Fungi + mend + a good weapon is mitigating a lot of damage via regen and faster kill speeds. Couple that with FD when things go bad, and you'll discover that a bit of AC reduction isn't a huge deal.
