Ethereal Sword shouldn't be in the weapon spotlight section, because it is rated only 2 points and is much weaker than certain other weapons like the scarab ring. Zapatron 200 also is overpriced because of the ring. I suggest you add some of the recent cheap 9-iconers like ice club, stone club, pselia's fan, and golden compass.
As to the specifics of Etheral Sword, I'm not going to argue those here - that would belong in the weapon advice and comparison forum.
As to the weapon spotlight, you raise a valid point. I can only ask that you have a little patience. Myself and the other new raters were brought on to help bring many things up to date, but we're still getting the hang of things and busy with a few other projects before we can get to the spotlight.
