What happens when you add a heavier plate is that you mechanically damp the outlet/plug interface. That is a vibration control that effects microphonics.
If you use a non-magnetic heavy metal plate you also provide some electrical field shielding.
What it sounds like is clearer, just like most other audio tweaks. The degree of that is on the more subtle side, IME, but it's notable none-the-less.
If you have a non-magnetic outdoor cast zinc or aluminum plate, try it. You may indeed like it.
