That's because the armoire doesn't keep detailed information about its items. It has a single bit for each item it can store, and all it knows is "Is item <X> present in the Armoire? [Yes/No]"

It doesn't store any more info than that, so the items cannot have any extra values like spiritbond %, durability %, dye color, materia, etc. So it resets any spiritbond, requires all items to be at 100% durability, and cannot take any items that are customizable with dye or materia. With those rules, it can know that all items have their standard default values when you withdraw them.

I do think they could add more items to what it can store, though. All unique and non-customizable items should be included, but many aren't. Particularly annoying is the way SE waits several months before getting around to adding new items to the armoire. If an item is storable, it should be added to the armoire at the same time that the item itself is added to the game.
