You can compensate for increased unsprung weight with springs and dampers, but there is no compensation for poor geometry.
Kinda like: would you rather have awesome tires with a super fragged alignment, or mediocre tires with a great alignment?

In the case of a factory car like this, which has a less than efficient front end design, making the geometry better is much more crucial than the unsprung weight. The increase in caster and other benefits that the cast knuckles are said to give will help high speed handling.
