why is there a minimum weight requirement in Formula 1? Wouldn’t teams be incentivized to lessen the weight of their cars for faster speeds?

I recall reading years ago that teams will try to save weight of the vehicle in general, then when they have to bring the vehicle back to the minimum weight they can add the weight strategically (close to center of gravity, for example) to maintain balance of the car.
So all cars weigh the same, but some have ballast in better places.
