A worthwhile cost saving.
How do the weights compare: The Oro looks a little heavier in the web design and has fewer and smaller holes in the disc itself?

Yes, I thought they'd be heavier too but, in fact, they're lighter:

1505g Serie Oro
1633g OE

Money saved and weight saved too! Can't be bad.

That's a result.

Weight saving usually costs dear, especially on unsprung spinning components!

Ask the guys with the carbon wheels what the cost per gramme weight reduction is........?
