-m 2500 = WPA/WPA2 has a minimum password length of 8
hashcat will reject all input words immediately if they are < 8 (even before the rules are applied, because the rule engine is on-GPU and doesn't perform rejection rules).
you could use pipes or -j to modify the password earlier on to test if the same problem happens with base passwords that are already long enough
