Ah, not as heavy as I thought. I suspect that its purpose is to dampen vibration through the cable to the shifter, and possibly to assist with shifting as the momentum of it would help with fully engaging a position. The shape is probably just based on what's around it once the tranny is mounted in the engine bay.
