First of all, I'm almost certain that these seats, including the 4th captain and 8th VC, will be filled after the war is over, and according to Kobu - It will take a long, long time. look how long it took to fill the 3rd, 5th and 9th captain seats (amagai was a filler)! Renji was a good option, but they didn't do anything with him, and Hisagi was just a temp. so yeah, no hurry there.
