Dura Ace Di2 11spd offers a fair bit of weight savings over Force AXS, like nearly 1lbs, but if money was no object and the total build was coming in around 10k, I’d be well into “light bike” territory anyway, where a pound either way just wouldn’t really matter
SRAM have a beta program for AXS, so I suspect the system will be the basis of development for awhile.
I would be hard pressed to give up a pound on a 10K$ bike. I find that a weight does matter biggly but then my bike and I come to 150lbs. YMMV
