Transcending doesn't necessarily mean you can't be trapped when you've used up most of your power so it's possible Aizen just wasn't allowed to recover and gain the strength to break free. Though it's true he evolved (adapted to survive) I'm surprised that no one mentioned how his chrysalis and evolutions basically were exactly the same as becoming a hollow and later an arrancar considering he gained a white shell outer appearance and later gained hollow holes and even a mask fragment just before he lost (has the hogyoku ever done anything more like a hollow?). Personally I really like your take on Kyoka suigetsu's loneliness and think you're probably right but Kubo may or may not reveal so in the end
