Some :xpath rules don't work

[AdamWr]

For example rule like this doesn't work:

ghacks.net#$?#:xpath(//div[@class="user-content"]/div[@class="snippet-clear"]/following-sibling::text()[contains(.,'Advertisement')]) { remove: true; }

or

ghacks.net#?#:xpath(//div[@class="user-content"]/div[@class="snippet-clear"]/following-sibling::text()[contains(.,'Advertisement')])

It should remove "Advertisement" text in this article - https://www.ghacks.net/2020/04/22/vivaldi-3-0-with-adblocker-and-tracker-blocker-released/

Something like this works:

var el = document.evaluate( `//div[@class="user-content"]/div[@class="snippet-clear"]/following-sibling::text()[contains(.,'Advertisement')]`, document, null, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null ).iterateNext();

el.remove();

so I think it should be possible.
