Not really seeing it. Ichigo is a unique case. I don't see him as neither a Vizard or a Arrancar. He's something else altogether. The simple fact he has quincy powers places him in a unique position no Vizard or Arrancar has.

But they not using it because of the strain in their bodies might be the right answer right there. Maybe when they are using the bankai and then tried to use their masks something like Tousen resurrección would begin to happen. And we all know how that ended for Tousen.

Yeah. Maybe that's the answer. Only unlike Tousen their resurrección was wrong and they'd start losing control over their minds and bodies, or it created too much strain in their souls, which might enhance the risk of what Urahara called Soul Suicide.
