It's a good concept but I'm concerned all that extra stuff will reduce an already too short flight time even more.

No joke. Seems like it would cut the flight time down significantly.

I seem to remember reading that the nominal P4 payload weight was about 500 grams (I could be wrong though) so this definitely seems overloaded.

Perhaps they were showing ALL items just to show the different mount spots, but you would choose only a few items at any one time.
