While you might say, such calculations are hard to do for a pilot, and noone memorizes a chart, there is one advantage of computer technology: Your computers can remember the weight, can run "SELECT" queries to look up data quickly and efficiently.
Where pilots are limited by how much math can do, how much data they can analyze, it might be possible to use computers to do the math. Both in case of calculations like this, and when predicting probable / possible future.
