Hello
BGP weight is only locally significant to the router so it isn’t advertised to any updates towards any peers and as you have rightly stated its cisco proprietary however my understanding the weight feature IS available on Fortinet platforms

Hello,
as far as I recall, Fortinet has the BGP Weight attribute as well. Check the link below (scroll down to the 'Neighbors' section)...
