It's like the pilot episode for Sword of Logos: The Old Generation, where all of these new swordsmen get one (1) defining character trait, and it's simpler if they can be proto versions of our usual cast. It's hard enough to remember which new face is which, so Espada is

going to wear gold, and Kenzan is
absolutely
going to talk about getting stronger.

I'm glad they didn't make you as angry as they made me!

There was probably a gap in their writing/filming too, so it just goes to show again how the show evolved and decided how it wanted to portray it's characters over time!
Maybe! I think there's something to be said for narrative coherency, though --even if we're thinking of these as two separate specials, the wacky Ren/Desast/Shindai stuff doesn't exactly sit well alongside Kento's emotional annihilation. There doesn't really seem to be an overall story being told with the scenes and characters they chose to spotlight, which makes the unevenness of the two halves stand out to me.
