It is extremely important to man users who carry their laptops around daily to make them lighter. My last one was 5½ pounds; this one is 4½ pounds. Still heavy but noticeably easier to carry.
The new model is 4 pounds! (15" rMBPro in all 3 cases).
If I were in the market at present, that reduced carry-weight would be more important to me than the thinness — but that is PART of where it comes from.
I expect the logic board in these models is scarcely larger than that in the recent Macbook — we'll need to wait for iFixit to dissect one to know — but that would make it less than the dimensions of the laptop *keyboard*.
