Or maybe the Volstanding ability purify the reishi before absorbing it and they didn't think that the process of purifying was needed for shinigamis, beside the fact that they would never be able to absorb Vizard/Ichigo's Bankai.
That is merely your assumption which is destroyed by: http://readms.com/r/bleach/552/2095/19
They can't absorb even the tiniest bit oh Hollow and it's been established long ago (the whole reason Quincies were exterminated) was because they were destryoing Hollows. They didn't purify them.
This chapter just went and retconned itself in the same arc. It also made the whole stolen bankai thing Kubo established earlier pointless considering how fast he just solved the problem.
