This list (Claude generated) is missing Tamron lenses:
Tamron 20mm f/2.8, 24mm f/2.8 and 35mm f/2.8 are all also under 300 grams.
I've only used three lenses under 300 grams: the Sony 35mm f/2.8, Samyang 35mm f/2.8, and Samyang 45mm f/1.8. Of the three, the Samyang 45 was my favorite. Recently purchased Sony 35mm f/2.8 again, because it has much higher quality build than Samyangs and it is one of the smallest.
On line 4 there is a typo for the Sony 28/2 - Sony, B&H, et al say it weighs 200g.

Cool that you made a chart! On line 4 I think you have a typo for the Sony 28/2 - Sony, B&H, et al say it weighs 200g.
