Hardly any divers will ever need to make a bouyant ascent (dump weights underwater) and even less likely for a diver using redundant kit and both a BCD and a drysuit, like the OP.
It's far more likely in his case that he (or his buddy) will need to dump them on the surface and if you're in that position it would really suck to get to the surface, not be able to dump your weights and then sink and drown. That happens more often than you might think.
