Exactly my point. Any Shinigami has the potential to learn it (regardless of whether they do or not). If (and the keyword here is if) Kido is an ability that requires reiryoku control and training to be capable of performing, then it should be even more possible for an Arrancar to be able to learn it.

Remember this is all hypothetical thinking, so for this to to work you have to imagine that an Arrancar decides they want to learn Kido (and as we have all seen we have Arrancar of varying intelligences and personalities; they're not all instinctual, bestial, bloodthirsty monsters like most Hollows are). Let's say, for example, Starrk or Szayel Aporro goes to an establishment where Kido is taught. We all know that they can both control their reiryoku and both are intelligent (especially the latter). Now considering they have all the necessary requirements to actually do it (reiryoku control and training, as you say), should it not be possible ? they are he same mentality as hollow essentially but more intelligent and logical. Disagree with this. Explain Neliel, her Fraccion and to an extent Starrk and Szayel. Take away their Hollow hole, Hollow mask and their Resurreccion and they could quite easily pass as another species. Barring the Hollow-related things I listed above, there's not really anything "Hollow-like" about them.
