Ah that makes sense.
Do you know how AGI factors into this? I.e. if im encumbered and thus have lowered AGI am I going to be negating the benefit of the armor's AC?

Again, not for certain due to lack of testing. In theory agility should be avoidance AC (as opposed to mitigation AC like from your worn armor). Being encumbered shouldn't affect your average DI roll, but rather it should cause monsters to miss you less often in the first place. If the system works as expected then losing avoidance AC should hurt you more than gaining the same amount of mitigation AC, meaning if the bronze armor is causing you to be permanently encumbered than it's almost assuredly not worth wearing. I stress that this is only a case of "should." Testing would be required to confirm (or refute) these comments.
As jimjam says, the effect from agility only becomes serious once you start dropping below 75. If you're dropping from something like 83 to 80 it shouldn't be a big deal.
