If the rule said it worked like above, then that'd be fine. What it 
says, though, is that the object ceases to exist as of earlier in the 
game; thus it cannot exist now. It doesn't say that my action is legal, 
or that the gamestate is treated as if it hadn't been there, except 
that my action still happens, or anything like that. It just says that 
it hasn't been there for a while.
