I don't think that is enough to explain the difference. The Mobius substrate itself is not enough to explain how light the Forma is. Unless they reduced the support around the screen as they didn't need the device to be as stiff. But, I don't remember the Forma being flexible.
The Forma isn’t flexible per se, though it’s certainly exceptionally skinnier at the non button side than the Sage. I’d have to presume that extra size is owed to protecting the internals a bit, maybe the stylus layer as well.

But it’s rather unlikely that it’s due to the added antenna to allow Bluetooth as had been put forward in the post I’d replied to.
