Five pounds is the grocery bag dangling off my flat bar.

Anyone who actually has done that knows that it always ends up swinging around and ending up in the spokes if you go fast enough.

Also 5 lbs is not a big deal when it's detachable, but it matters a lot more when it's part of a large 30+ lb object you're carrying up the stairs to your apartment.
