Question Lightweight flywheels and SyncroRev Match

I've been driving around this weekend with SynchroRev turned off (as I do like to heel & toe just for the pleasure of it) and I got to thinking that the 370 could use a lighter flywheel. But then I started to wonder -- how exactly does SynchroRev work? More specifically, is the weight of the stock flywheel programmed into the computer algorithm that determines how much to blip the throttle in order to achieve the correct revs? If so, then won't getting a significantly lighter flywheel screw up SyncroRev Match? Because any given amount of throttle will rev a lighter flywheel higher than a heavy one. Any thoughts? Anyone understand the technical intricacies of how SynchroRev Match works?
