I like the idea, but I generally dislike the Hogyokū after it was shown to be an explanation for everything. I liked how Aizen kept powering up using it, but it got old. In my head, Orihime using her power to erase the Hogyokū always sounded like the best idea. To bad it never happened. I really don't think Ichigo is copying all of the powers. Some are genetic (Quincy powers), while some occur accidentally (Hollow powers). He learns the others (Soul Reaper [although, it was given more than learned, but he had to learn how to use it], Fullbring, and Bankai). Really, in my opinion, it just makes more since to say he is a extremely fast learner. And, he is also able to withstand great effort, and it helps him "learn physically".
