I was under the impression Jotaro's timestop decreased because he was using it too much rather than because he wasn't using it, it was taking a tool on his body(something DIO didn't have to bother with since his vampiric regeneration could fix anything), and thus making his spirit(and by extenssion, his Stand) weaker.

Who knows, maybe the issue is that Koichi used Echoes too much rather than too little, even if not outright combat, he could still be using it for practice, and he strained himself too much, it is worth note that his Destructive Power went up rather than down, while all other stats went down except Precision, perhaps it was a sort of trade off, become weaker overall but also become much stronger.
