I can't really comment on the difference in total weight from more or less movement. But a really stiff or locked down rear will transfer the weight immediately whereas the softer rear that allows some squat will allow the car to get moving before the squat stops and then at that point the weight will be transferred. I agree with more weight on the front and also balancing the weight using the scales you mentioned. I think a proper rear shock setting can really come into play as well. I gave up on the air shocks myself.
