He is not evil the only thing that I'm saying is that the way for Ichigo to become stronger is to accept Hollow Ichigo as his zanpakuto and make him a more dominant presence in his inner world if this was to happen then then the old man would probably still be there (I'm still smelling a fight so Hollow Ichigo becomes more dominant) but would not be the main force of ichigo's power (he was simply mimcicing or stealing the power of Hollow Ichigo) though he could teach Ichigo about his quincy side while Hollow Ichigo teaches him about his zanpakuto's special techniques (Ichigo could start using zangetsu like Hollow Ichigo does)
