In many cases the plastic you're adding weighs more than the jig head.The plastic may not contribute much to the sink rate once it hits the water but it still affects casting distance.
You are correct . A trout Magnet body weighs more than a Bobby Garland Itty Bit Swim池 body .
A slider grub weighs more than both .
All 1/64 jigheads don稚 weigh 1/64 oz either .
That痴 why I tried to give an idea of the different bodies I was using on the same jigheads .
