I deemed the reason of Mutsu and Izumin in the key visual is because they are the only two Bakumatsu-gumi sword left (Nagasone, Horikawa and Okita-gumi are vanished, dunno are they destroyed or confiskated or whatever), and there's much more historitic information of Bakumatsu Era than Sengoku Era (or other eras older than that), so it's easier for Ufotable staff to write the story.
