(Of course, some follow-ups only trigger on impact, such as impact-fused grenades. You'll have to target the ground under the ghost's legs instead for those.)

That makes sense.
Though it does make me question what the difference would be between the the two options below:
Innate Attack which does not hurt insubstantial things with a follow up that does.
Innate Attack which does not hurt insubstantial things linked (using Link) with an Innate Attack which does.
