Guess I misunderstood [tech bag] as something else. Might be going more in depth than you even planned so take my spiel with a grain of salt. If it’s work stuff that’s a bit harder but you could try separating some of that stuff out into a secondary bag. Sounds like you’ve thought pretty hard about ditching certain things, I’d just encourage continuing to assess, maybe even making an inventory of your stuff and recording how much you use each item in a certain period of time. Consider within your budget what you could replace for lighter/smaller options, ex I used to EDC a full size multitool until I realized a small one gives me most of what I need daily and only carry the big one during certain work days. Hopefully some of that helped.
My pocket EDC is a Milwaukee box cutter with a fold out screwdriver (Phillips and flat head reversible bit) and it serves me well. Used to just carry a box cutter but so many times I’d need a screwdriver and not have one physically on me
I traded my standard Milwaukee box cutter for a new one they put out that has a fold out screwdriver and bottle opener. It’s very useful. Definitely don’t regret buying it

Get the tirant ultra instead of Milwaukee box cutter, save some weight
Doesn’t appear to have a screwdriver on it
Didn’t realize the Milwaukee box cutter had a screwdriver. Hmmm maybe the roxon multitool although it doesn’t have titanium
