It´s probably a case rather similar to Yoshimura's. Like Dayne said, there´s the situation with ranged attacks and the countermeasures people´ll take in battle. Ukaku tend to have this sort of situation in every significant battle for their lives, and thus Yoshimura's blades were formed to lessen this hazard(although some seem to believe the blades were his original form of kagune, though I have doubts about that anime depiction as being anything other than a result of his kakuja's mutation to the kagune). Same seems to come to his daughter's case, though in a different manner later on, and Ayato whose preference is close-quarters was at least able to influence his kagune to take on similar capabilities(eventual kakuja or no).

Tatara has been implied to be bikaku, and there seems to still be a tail-like ribbon remaining behind him at the conjuration of the kakuja and also around him a couple of moments. If he feels these other features will suit his needs, extra appendages is not really out of the question.
