Zelda + Lightning Bolt = Bug?

[Wizpig]

Sure, i know a lot of people here do NOT play with items, but let me explain this.
Simply put, after someone grabs the Lightning bolt it can shrink or buff you, as you know.
The thing is, if you Down+B from Zelda to Sheik or the other way - while you have this malus/buff on - the status will last basically until you die -- so you can have a giant Zelda/Sheik and easily kill the opponent.

I discovered this while i was playing online, searched but found nothing... is it already know?
Any tips to prevent this that is not "Lightning Bolt: OFF"?

I've discovered it many times when negatively impacted by a Lightning Bolt.
Offline I found it works when the Lightning Bolt makes you giant, but that's a very rare situation to take advantage of.

I'm astonished.
How could they not notice this before shipping the game, i have no clue.

Oh well, i'll add "Lightning Bolt < Off".
