Remember that your butt is planted to lowest part of the car, making the least amount of effect to weight distribution. Lessening weight that is fastened to the highest part of the car would have a more significant impact.
I agree that it is minimal, but I disagree that it is insignificant. Your car is more tossable/maneuverable with a lower center of gravity, versus a higher center of gravity. I don't think you'd need me to cite a source for that one. It's about as basic as you can get.
