Have you driven the 6 puck/streetlite? It is quite grabby even on upshifts I can only imagine that the 4 puck/prolite is even worse. less rotating mass is good, but upsetting the car is also bad. Just something to consider.

I assume you mean flush not bleed which sounds good. I had them put Motul 600 in my clutch and put in a stainless line at the same time. I'm hoping the fluid should last as long as the clutch because taking my top mount out to flush it is no fun.
Motul is notorious for collecting water over time. I'm going to flush w/ good old ATE.

Upshifting isn't really an issue for upsetting the car, you rarely upshift while turning. And I double-clutch/rev-match my downshifts out of habit, which the lighter fllywheel/clutch will only make easier/faster.

It's not like there's going to be a dramatic difference between the 4 and 6 puck and the lighter FW. We're not talking about a 3 plate carbon fiber clutch that has a 4" flywheel and zero rotational inertia...
