I don't get why Ichigo would even be considered for the Zero Division. Raw power doesn't mean automatic qualification as a member. Everyone forgets you need experience and skill. It could have to do with what Juhabach said, Ichigo's mom maybe being a quincy, his dad being a former member, Kon actually turning out to be the Spirit King, a whole mess of other possibilities. To be honest, if Ichigo were to be promoted solely on the basis of being strong or even saving Soul Society, would be an absolute slap in the face of everyone who ever actually studied and trained and fought their way into that position.
