"The series" did not establish anything. It was merely guesses amongst the characters themselves. You can't possibly take that as what's really true in-universe. If it were Kubo himself saying it, it would be different, but his characters did, and characters have faults too. They can misjudge things and be wrong. They can be misinformed. They can lie even.

Nothing's inconsistent here, as the origin of Chad's and Orihime's powers wasn't a solid fact before.
