Hi, thank you for your report. Internal ticket MAGETWO-62278 was created
@flipflap, thank you for your report.
We've created internal ticket(s) MAGETWO-62278 to track progress on the issue.
@magento-engcom-team Great! This issue is a major problem when creating a configurable product with children from options. (Which is the fastest way to create a large number of product combinations). You have to manually edit each product to enable "this item has weight"
@magento-engcom-team I am getting an unexpected product type as well when creating a configurable product. Better yet add this "product has/has no weight" during the creation of product associated with the configurable product.
@flipflap, thank you for your report.
Unfortunately, we are archiving this ticket now as it did not get much attention from both Magento Community and Core developers for an extended period. This is done in an effort to create a quality, community-driven backlog which will allow us to allocate the required attention more easily.
Please feel free to comment, reopen or create new ticket according to the Issue reporting guidelines
if you are still facing this issue on the latest 2.4-develop branch. Thank you for collaboration.
