Another possible theory is that when it refers to "cannot change its shape nor store or absorb anymore Rc Cells other then was harvested from the ghoul it was made from", it means that the Rc Count that the ghoul has at the moment is the limit that it can ever absorb, and that it is refueled with that weird potion thingy used by burning the bodies of ghouls or something mentioned in TG:Re. For example, lets say that an ukaku type is killed by a Dove, and at the moment of death had a 3,500 Rc Cell count. When it's quinque is used, it still releases Rc Cells, but maybe after it's exhausted a bit [say, down to 1,000 RcC] then it is refueled with the potion thingamajig to up the Rc count, but the kagune itself would not absorb any more than 3,500 RcC, even if it is over-fueled.
