We have ~15lb aftermarket flywheels but that's pretty much what some cars come stock with. Those cars would then have ~7lb flywheels as an aftermarket option. I understand there are reasons for a flywheel being too light (like 4lb race models) making it hard to modulate at low speeds but I don't see why 7lb would be an issue
