I honestly think you guys are thinking of it too literally. Poison is a nice touch and all, but I don't think it can be called poison, since poison affects people differently. From what we've seen, Suzumebachi's Nigeki Kessatsu works the same each time, so long as Soifon's opponent doesn't overwhelm her own reiatsu. Suzumebachi's power is to assassinate the target; a reflection of both Soifon's rigidness and devotion to a single task, which has carried over from her servitude of Yoruichi to her Captain status and position as the Commander of the Onmitsukido. "Killing in two steps" is a reflection of an assassin's method of killing. One must wait for the right moment after designating the one that must be killed (which is the first step, in that Suzumebachi marks her opponent) and then the actual assassination occurs (the second step). In Bankai, Suzumebachi is a weapon that indiscriminately massacres anything that lay before it. She considers it "too flashy for assassination" for countless reasons, but one of the greatest reasons, at least in my opinion, is because of its indiscriminate way of destroying everything. "Final Release" is perfect in describing Jakuho Suzumebachi because it is the act of a desperate assassin when they are left with no other option, for their duty is to kill their target by any means necessary, even at the cost of their own life.

Adding to that, when Soifon stated that their goal is survival and that they faced Aizen with no intention of laying down their lives, in contrast with Yamamoto's statement of dying to exterminate great evil, this may also explain why she detests this Bankai; but that is a bit far-reaching, I think.
