Hakuda Meijin is about manifesting the essence of power, so yeah, it'd be like performing a Muken designated to cut.

Swordsmanship can be aggressive too...? I don't get where that's coming from. Strikes that can cut like a katana can absolutely benefit an aggressive style, why wouldn't it? Swordsmanship has hard and soft just like hand to hand martial arts do.

Yes, Hakuda Kata is concept resonance, but resonance isn't invoked unless one is highly skilled. Just like how one who is starting Zanjutsu, even one that has learned Shikai, isn't capable of fully resonating with the Zanpakuto yet, which would yield them Bankai. Just doing Hakuda doesn't mean you trigger concept resonance. If your intention was for Kousa to be at that level, then Kuniharu wouldn't really have much to offer. Botan would, since she's mastered up to Hakuda Kata.

If your intention is something similar to Itto Shura, well, that's just a mixture of Hakuda Taisabaki, Hakuda Zanshin, and Reiatsu Kimeru. When you balance these three sufficiently, you can aim Kousa's striking methods (Hakuda Atemi, in other words) into a style focused on sword strikes being performed by the hands and legs. Since you're using the term Asura, you could further apply Reiatsu Kimeru into Kousa creating additional arms through his spiritual pressure which can be used in his strikes. But that's just one suggestion from me.
