I'm not the OP, but as far as I know there is no economic faction which disputes the claim that "a weak currency boosts exports."

I spent 5 minutes googling this out of curiosity and could only find published claims in favor of the orthodox "weak currency boosts exports" idea, for example "Export dependent nations may actively encourage a weak currency in order to boost their exports." [0] or "Exports become cheaper when the currency of a nation is weak."[1]

If there are published claims to the contrary, I would be interested in reading them.
