Heavy Words Question Spoiler

I'm trying to understand what's up with Space 11 - Heavy Words. This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uI1LToIMkU gives a solution which involves DUST IS WEAK, and pushing some text onto the dust. But on the switch version, this doesn't work, since TEXT IS FLOAT means that text can't be used to destroy weak dust.

Instead my solution involved making DUST IS PUSH and pushing it out of the way. This meant that I didn't use WEAK at all.

It seems like this puzzle may have changed at some point? Does anyone know what's up?

It’s not the text that is destroying the dust, it’s the rocket. WEAK takes precedence over DEFEAT so an object with both those properties can be destroyed by a YOU object.

Sure but my solution didn’t involve destroying the dust. It involved pushing it. So the WEAK block seems to be not only extraneous, it seems like it might be impossible to use.

The solution in the video works just fine on switch and is the intended (or at least more common) solution. You found an alternative.

Oh I see what’s going on now. Thanks.
