In case anybody is reading this, patterns have to have not only one 
weight attribute, but two attributes:

   * a priority that solves conflicts (fighting pattern sets),

   * a weight (or a demerit in case of TeX) that is to be associated
     with a potential hyphenation point to steers the paragraph breaking
     algorithm towards more legible paragraph breaks.

So undesirable patterns would have

   * a very high priority to always take effect,

   * a very low weight (hight demerit) to avoid/forbid that
     hyphenation.
