If the fifth wheel is set up properly (at least with a long bed) there should be no extra weight on the front axle, it's all carried on the rear axle.
I disagree with your statement; at least in some installations. My last two B&Ws and a previous hitch, I can't recall the brand, both required that the hitch be installed a minimum of two inches forward of the rear axle to intentionally transfer some of the weight forward for better balance and steering. I do not know what hitch you use so it may be different.
