The guy doing my skates told me the LS2 and True rivet holes are in the same place, no new holes were needed

I just got my 2019 True skates back from the hockey shop. I swapped the True holder with LS2/Step Steel and the weight was drastically and noticeably lowered. They’re a hair heavier than my previous 2016 VH skates. Conclusion: most of the addition weight as compared to the 2016 VH skate is a result of the True holder. Mounting holes were unchanged.

I was using the 2016 VH skate with LS2 and step steel, prior to them merging with True. Best skates I ever purchased. These got worn out and in Dec 2018 I bought a new pair of VH skates with the True holder. I noticed these new VH skates by True are drastically heavier than previous VH skates. Is the weight difference a result of the True holder? B/c if is I’m going to switch back to the LS2. Thx
