I'm not sure why everyone is so sure that Ichigo's zanpakuto spirit died after FGT, didn't he manifest through an asauchi in soul palace training, suggesting he was always there? I like your theory by the way and would like to add, to suppress Masaki's hollowfication didn't Isshin link his powers to hers? If so it might be that he gained a quincy aspect to his powers that gave him insight on a letz stille like technique in the final getsuga tensho. It's also possible that in order to use FGT you need to fully have access to your zanpakuto's power in unity with your quincy powers so you can use them as one, explaining why Ichigo may have needed both spirits to gain the technique
