Well when you find a way they are currently useful in their roles you let me know. Seeing as they have been written as useless in the regard they cant even protect the interests of themselves or the balance of the world anymore.

Ichigo's bravery has nothing to do with his ability to kill. He doesn't believe he is killing. Hollows arent killed they are purified. Arrancars maybe are to but he is not really Gotei 13 he doesn't possess the resolve to kill as any other shinigami does. They play to win. Go hard or go home. He stops short of actually taking anyone out trying to reason with them.
