I just noticed that ghostly weapons only work on non-magical weapons. Wondering what's the rationale of this? It really makes this spell worthless because by that level, everyone would be carrying magical weapons.
In default campaign, probably. There may be some niche use for emergency situations where using a non-runed weapon and casting Ghostly Weapon and Magic Weapon on it would be better than using your primary weapons.
There are also the variant rules for Automatic Bonus Progression and High Quality equipment that will give the attack and damage bonuses of fundamental runes, but don't make the weapons magical.

Another use is using it on a weapon with a manoeuvre trait to be able to Trip/Grapple ghosts.
