The idea that Dagger had light powers was simply the result of a mad experiment, so while we are used to thinking of it as "swapped" it's actually "the way it was meant to be". In fact, it was mentioned that when "returned" they were even more powerful than before (Cloak made mention that he could not only throw light daggers, but move at the speed of light as well).
Frankly I'm glad to see them still have "Swapped" powers. It's a nice nod to that final issue, and makes me curious if there are any plans for them.
