It says it floats 1' off the ground, not that it can fly. I assume it's WotC ignoring the third dimension rather than them intentionally creating a 1st level ritual that gives anyone who can cast it a fly speed for 24 hours.
Using it to help others keep up is cool though.![]()
I think you're right. However, you can still allow it to transport you over traps, acid, lava, water, etc.. Unless you think a water-walking character with a tenser disk behind him would have the disk plunge into the water to the bottom as soon as he started walking across water...which is not my interpretation.
