I kind of agree with most of your points though you should remember that the boundaries of shinigami and hollow power are vague at times like how Zommari's technique was stated by Byakuya to be similar enough to kido that it could be blocked by an anti-kido barrier or how Urahara was able to basically use garganta which is a pretty established hollow power, my point simply was that Hachi probably gained insight like Urahara and applied his unique insights as a vizard to make hybrid "vizard" kido, it's very hard to confirm as they've never really shown what the kido corps could do but the ease in which he casts such high level spells without even chanting in most cases, the unique and recurring barrier theme to his spells and most importantly the timing in which he learned them at least imply they have some hollow aspect to their nature
