You argument is quite reasonable. However, I trust Grimmjow is Vasto lorde due to appearance of his Resurrección. He looks pretty human to me (unlike Szeyelapporo or Zommari). Plus, Resurreccións of his Fracción, all look identical to their pre-arrancar appearance. His Resurrección doesn't turn him in a big cat, but rather in a humanoid with feline... parts. Why Nnoitra is higher ranked than Grimmjow, despite being an Adjucha is a rather simple matter; Nnoitra had, at some point in past, defeated Cirucci Sanderwicci, but left her alive. This explains his promotion to 5th Espada, AND also explains her Privaron Espada status as well as her number (105). But then again, this is just my theory.
