I take the view that all you have to do is see how Soifon herself feels about her bankai and you have the general idea about in general. Why a bankai is supposed to be the most powerful attack a shinigami has she never uses it. We also have yet to see it used in a real bankai overkill moment. Used against Baraggan it seemed useless and the second time didn't have the desired effect that one would expect from a bankai. We can say its creative but the bankai is lame in comparison to its initial release.
