Quill to threadless stem adapter

Having never had to use one of these converters, I was wondering:

What weight saving over a standard quill is there to be had, if any?

I suspect it ends up getting heavier overall?
 
Bound to be heavier as you're replacing the length of fork tube you don't have with a solid adapter and then a stem on top. Since I'm nearly 17 stone the few grams isn't going to make much different :)
