I had a whole giant argument written and then wiki lost my post. So to summarize, what Yhwach has said is a claim, and that by no means makes what he claims to be 100% truthful, it's not inconsistency, it's proper characterization. What kind of villain would he be for stating that "any power I can see in the future is my ally (which is an incorrect statement, none of the abilities have become his "ally" they've just been nullified via him changing the future to prevent them from working, which we know as a solid facet of the Almighty) except of course for illusions which is my one big weakness" that would be a giant strategic misstep from a villain has been terribly strategic for a lot of this arc, not to mention Yhwach probably doesn't even know what the flaws of his ability are. If you've won (nearly) every battle, and nullified any power that you've seen using your future sight wouldn't you believe that you're nigh unkillable and can nullify everything? I mean you'd be completely right until you're proven wrong. This isn't even a rare ocurrence in Bleach heck in anime in general, hundreds of abilities (in anime) have been stated as one-hit kills or absolute defenses by those using them only for a previous unknown workaround to be discovered and them beaten. Stop labelling tropes/plot elements/cliches/whatever/etc as inconsistencies when that's not factually true.
