Late last month, Google accidentally leaked thousands of internal documents with API information used in the Google Search algorithm. While it doesn't include weight information, it offers a treasure trove of information on different ranking factors and parameters (some of which are likely historical/deprecated). It also describes a number of systems/services used when building a search results page, such as different index tier, and twiddlers (post-ranking adjustments).
I've read through this article and found it to be a comprehensive dive into the leak. For a more accessible (less in-depth) article though, Search Engine Land put out a piece as well.
Just imagine if somebody launched Google from 2015, but under a different name. ...AI and the present day web would probably render it meaningless, but let me live in my fantasy world please.

I assume a skeleton crew for setting up 2015 Google infrastructure would be around 100 highly skilled people. In order to host google.com the company pretty much invented modern web hosting practices at all levels of the vertical. Except internally Google doesn't use kubernetes. It's all bespoke stuff like Borg.

You’d need their 20 years of data even if you knew all the intricacies of the algorithm.
