There legitimately aren’t any, so no, I doubt they were asking that.Derp, yes they were, context is important kids! Leaving the rest of my original answer, as it’s accurate:
In some handhelds, you might see small counterweights added to make them easier to hold for long periods, or to stop them tipping over when in a table, but for internal components (like power supplies) there’s never a need to add weights.
That’s definitely what they meant, I don’t know why you’re so certain otherwise. Just because a question doesn’t have an answer doesn’t mean it wasn’t asked.
I think they were asking about legitimate benefits of adding weights to consumer electronics.

I could see it making sense in a hard drive to dampen vibrations but that’s a stretch
