Yota,
Glad to see you come over to DK-side! As I mentioned before (and I am glad you did your homework of actually measuring) I went through the same exact thought process. Go with the DK, I did and I don't regret it one bit. The DK has a wider base than CK so, I presume the stability is better, but I don't have a CK to compare with. As for the weight, I have a septic system and live in the woods. My ground very seldom totally dries out, especially in the woods. The only time I have any issues are in the spring when the 8" of topsoil is mush. But, even then I can't even drive my little garden tractor in the woods without sinking in. I don't mow with it, because my actual grassy yard is so small, but I cut through it a lot and hardly make a dent.
Go for the DK35, you will be happier and in a year you will be mad you didn't just get the DK40!
