If your theory is correct, then Kubo doesn't know how to write a good story. Really, what's the difficulty of killing someone who's in a hospital bed? Anyone could have killed Rose and Kensei in Gremmy's situation, even you and I. Why "imagine" those 2 are dead when you can actually kill them easily? Same thing for Toushirou and Rangiku: any random Quincy could just get there and shoot a Heilig Pfeil to kill the two.
