Why can't Tanjiro master water breathing?

Tanjiro stopped primarily using Water Breathing because Sun Breathing (Hinokami Kagura) is significantly more powerful and better suited to his inherited abilities, though he initially mixed the two styles to balance Sun Breathing's intense strain with Water Breathing's fluidity for endurance, eventually mastering Sun Breathing through training. Water Breathing proved insufficient against stronger demons, leading him to rely on the superior offensive power of Hinokami Kagura, the original breathing style from which others derived.
