How is the original box weight determined for sets which ship in blister packs
?

The blister pack is, more or less, rendered unusable, in the attempt to remove
items from it. Do we calculate the OB weight based on the total weight less the
parts+instructions ?

I am not sure I understand the question.

Is a set packed in a blister pack different than one packed in any other standard
package?

Example:
 
Set No: 40419  Name: Hogwarts Students blister pack
* 
40419-1 (Inv) Hogwarts Students blister pack
37 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2020
Sets: Harry Potter
