4) Is the opening lens range good enough quality to avoid having to use existing lenses.... which would counter the lower weight advantage.
From what I can gather, the Z mount lenses are tending to be heavier than equivalent F mount lenses. They are larger, with more elements but Nikon's selling point is they claim to have maximum sharpness at widest aperture.
However they may be more robust due to the VR (IS?) being in the body rather than the lens, in theory they should be a little saving because you are only buying one image stabilising unit rather than one for each lens.
