Id agree beside hitsugaya (due to age) most captains dont pull out the bankai unless absolutely necessary or to make a brutal point or show of power. Ichigos inability to beat anyone without it shows his lack of real skill or command of his power. He spams getsuga tenshos like crazy, are there just no other abilities to use, who would know the last time he actively tried to learn something from zangetsu was when he found out about the final getsuga tensho. You think any other shinigami would limit themselves by not training to be better or learn more. Nope only Ichigo.
