Your point about IChigo being this once every few hundred years Quincy doesnt hold water with me. Heres why - Haschwalt had no power at all until Buckbeard took him in. So how can Ichigo have used his powers to do that?

Your point about why the badge suppressed his reiatsu - maybe thats just what its supposed to do and youre taking things to far to back up your theory. Captains have their power limited in the real world, we know it affects humans. Same with Ichigo if it was left unrestricted. Maybe thats all there is to it

On the Hogukyo, it was clearly said it can only grant powers that poeple have the potential to gain anyway, like with Chad and his fullbring - he already had the potential to develop that power, it just awakened it. Yhwach said that the reason Bazz B improved so fast was because Haschwalt was unconsciously leaking Reiatsu into his environment. also shortly following Chad and Orihime, Urahara said that Ichigos constantly leaking Reiatsu drew out their powers
