What th!nk said is pretty much correct. Your question can be answered even without the need of Physics. But I'll try to explain it in layman's language, and also in terms of Physics.
th!nk is probably forgetting something, as what I am going to say is what I learnt from him(:))-

This is something that cannot be explained altogether, so I'd put up the answer in points-

1. Why an Attacker has to be light?
An Attacker must be light ONLY because it can move around the stadium swiftly. Explaining the laws of Physics(specifically Newton's First Law of Motion) in layman's language- When magnitude of force remains constant, a heavier body moves slower than a lighter body.
In compliance with this point(and only this point), the reason why Galaxy sucks is because of the arrival of the 4D series, which set up the rule of "all that's lighter than 40g is a suck-ish part".

2. Why an Attacker has to be heavy? (Note- You need not read this really, as th!nk has given you the gist of it already. :))
An attacker doesn't really need to be the heaviest part available or something.
As you may know already, an attacker suffers from quite a bit of recoil. This recoil is present in every part that has contact points. Depending on the size, shape and distribution of contact points, the recoil suffered by every Metal Wheel varies.
Now, certain highly powerful Attack wheels also suffer from a lot of recoil. As long as you can legally modify it to handle the recoil suffered, the wheel can be deemed as a good Attack wheel. Unfortunately, Galaxy doesn't fulfill these parameters.
Coming back to the topic-
There are two ways by which we try to lessen the effect of recoil on a bey-
i)Increasing the weight; usually by adding a Metal Face (or simply by using a heavy wheel)
ii)Increasing the grip; usually done by using rubber Attack tips.

The first way is what we are focusing on. An attacker must be heavy enough to be able to handle the recoil it suffers. Taking a more suitable example of Lightning here-

4D is again, responsible for the need to have heavier attack wheels. Lightning has great capacity to be able to handle the recoil it suffers. But still it is ineffective. Why? Because the Defense and Stamina combos it faces are WAY too heavy for it to attack! If you want it to be explained in the terms of Physics, you can refer to the laws of Inertia and Momentum, which may just partly answer your question, IMO.

I hope you are satisfied with the answer. :)
Also, please correct me if I have gone wrong anywhere!

WD is better for Defense. It's also good for Stamina

I don't think it's better than EWD by any means, but it can do well enough. Because the tip of RDF extends slightly past the plastic shell surrounding it, it is able to precess to some degree.

L Drago Destroy BD145RDF has been popular in Toronto lately, but not only because of its ability to spin steal. L Drago Guardian could also be used, as Fluke was talking about.

Absorb has more rubber but isn't as useful as the original MLD...
