In the same way that a 120-300 / 2.8 is larger and heavier than a 70-200 / 2.8, a 35-105 / 2.8 would be larger and heavier than a 24-70 / 2.8.

It's tricky when you combine retro focus designs with tele designs though so it might not be an much larger as you would think. Remember before the new 35/1.4 II, the 24/1.4 II was larger than the 35/1.4 I. If you kill the more extreme retro focus needs of a 24-70 with a 35-xx, how much would that save in size and weight?
