"It means that the weight used in a vehicle for fuel to go to Mars was just cut in half."

Actually, I don't think so... Maybe the weight of the vehicle returning from Mars but not the one going to Mars.

You would only need fuel for one way.

Without water, it would take twice as much (thereabouts) to get you there and back. Real water means you wouldn’t have to come back. At least not right away.
