As I said, lifting light weight "has its place in the gym". I am not saying that everyone should lift p*ssy weights because of that. It's a matter of needs.
Yes you should be lifting heavy as much as possible even during cut to preserve as much strength. But going lightweight once in a while is a good way to deload your body and give it a break. If you've hit a plateau, you might wanna try it.
I have been watching few physique competitors on youtube, Ryan Terry among one of them, having a light weight routine among part of their training regimen, especially before their show/contest.
They do that to burn off the final glycogen stores (mainly during peak week) before their carbohydrate loading period to make them look full and tight.Yes you should be lifting heavy as much as possible even during cut to preserve as much strength.
