This is Rachel's full quote:

"No... you have to be stronger... you must. Hoaqin, you must be stronger. Because... you are the "sword" I chose-"

I think you've misunderstood who Rachel was referring to when she thinks this; not sure how though... Rachel is clearly referring to Hoaqin the entire time.

Rachel has already stated she wants to build a strong team around her and said before, "If my thorn breaks- I'll find the one who will be my thorn."[1] and "The guy behind that door right now- is the one who will be my first thorn."[1] Rachel sounds like she's implying she wants Hoaqin to be the main offensive power of her super team i.e. the "sword" of her team.

Not to mention, we were never told what kind of weapon the Colourless December is. It could be a needle, hook or some other fantastical weapon for all we know. So your theory is still very shaky at best.
