It's unclear whether you count as using that weapon to attack. For instance:
1. If you are using a +2 weapon, do you also add its +2 bonus to your attack rolls?
2. Do you also add your ability modifier and/or the weapon's enchantment +2 to the damage?
3. If it's a vicious weapon and you roll a critical hit, do you also add the weapons extra +7? If it's a flaming weapon, do you also add the d6 of fire damage?
4. If you have a spell like Spirit Shroud active, do you add the extra damage to each hit (at least to those targets within 10 ft as you cast SWS)?
5. If you have Greater Invisibility or Shadow of Moil active, do you also make those melee spell attacks with advantage?
