The definition still matters because it is not about the "shape" of the kagune, but the "cells" it's composed off.

Think of it this way.

Ukaku = molecules akin of air and mist, (light, easily breakable, easy to move with but needs conitnious recharging to maintain its form.)

Koukaku = Solid like rock and other minerals (hard, unchangable, heavy and once they got the form, it sticks until the user choose to stop using it.)

Rinkaku = looser molecule chains like liquids such as water. (fluid, flexible, not as heavy as the koukaku but not as light as the ukaku either, easy to replace, yet sturdy enough to hit like a ton of bricks when it "freezes" over. Liquids, like water, have the abilitty to get either thicker or thinner depending on the temperature, after all. Warm = Loose and Cold = Firm.)

Bikaku = Organic cellular structure, like the bones or muscle of a living being (a set amount of cells, capable of enlargement through continious strain, (bones and muscles get larger from repeated breaking and healing, as the knuckles of any proffesional boxer can attest to.) which grant it the ace-state it got, being no different then an actual limb on a individual.)

it's a rock-paper-scissors game in effect between these four types of cellular structure.

Mineral beats Gas (gas can't penetrate a solid material after all.)

Liquid beats Minerals (eroding them away.)

Organic beats Liquid (like how one can swim through water by moving arms through it, if this didn't happen, it would be impossible to swim in.)

Gas beats Organic (as organic materials are based and supplied by air, a gas, to even function and can absorb the gas much easier than a mineral or a liquid would.)

Ishida has not abandoned the concept of the kagune types.

It's just your and most others wrongfull assumption that the shape of the "kagunes" are what matters.

This is a error.

It's not the shape of the kagunes that matters, is the shape of the cells composing the kagunes that does.

Clear?
