Arise from the grave, oh ancient topic! DARK NECRO!
But no seriously, after having read through <a href='http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6480316/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>The World in Black and White</a>, which was recced to me in the search topic, I figured I may as well post it here. It's not Ichigo who becomes Captain of the 12th - rather, Ishida (though 'unofficially', but Nemu says he is basically), who kills Mayuri in Chapter 37, and starts to clean up the division of its more immoral experiments. Also lots of Nemu intereaction.

You say it as if that isn't enough to get shippers started. There's also the fact that the only other girl he'd had more on-screen interaction with before that point was Orihime. And I don't think that ever changed either.
Nemu also helped him out in the Bount filler arc which just added more fuel to the fire.

Not that surprising frankly, we have a chick who is clearly emotionally and physically tortured neigh constantly (Possibly more depending just how deluded you think Mayuri is, and given she's a clone of himself that he made a chick that's already raising flags), and Ishida was the first guy who was kinda nice to her. Enough shipping fuel there for next to anyone honestly based on the wooby appeal alone. :mellow:
Plus there's the whole suffocating him with her breasts bit when Kubo tried to shift Mayuri from complete monster to lulz territory with a pinch of total asshole. With Mayuri out of the picture it'd be hard to tell who she'd actually latch onto other than him. :snigger:
Nah see the pairing I don't get is Nemu/Ukitake. Granted I've only seen it once or twice in subpar mass shipping fics, but seriously wat. :blink:

After being made the captain of the 12th Division and put in charge of the research division, Ichigo realises that this is a terrible idea since he has little knowledge and interest in science. So he has the Gotei 13 end Urahara and TessaiÆs exile, now that they know Aizen was behind all the incidents, and has him placed in charge of the SRDI. If that doesn't work he'd just make Nemu the head scientist. Meanwhile he turns the rest of the 12th Division and into a combat division. The SRDI becomes a separate entity, similar to the Kido Corps, and possibly becomes linked with the 4th Division thanks to those regen injections.
Alternatively, if I just wanted to make him a captain, IÆd have Ichigo kill Kenpachi during their fight and then use Yachiru/Renji/Ikkaku/Byakuya and the recent loss in the GoteiÆs strength to make him a captain. Or rework the scenario so that the rest of the division is watching their fight.
So there's my take on it. Takes away the 'fun' of Ichigo being in charge of a scientific mad house but that wouldn't end well at all.

Ichigo's not stupid, he's quite smart for his age, it just Ichigo has for the most part been rushed into battle because of time constraints. He hasn't really had time to learn all the stuff that would be required to use it in his Shinigami/Vizard/Spiritual capacity.
Substitute Arc- Just waiting for Rukia to get her powers back, hollow are cake for the most part.
Soul Society- Execution kept getting moved up, on the run.
Arrancar- Trying to control Hollow.
Hueco Mundo- Trying to rescue Orihime.
Sins- Trying to stop Aizen/learn Final Getsuga.
Xcution- Had no powers.
Quincy War- Went to Hueco Mundo.

I would rather have Ichigo off Tousen and take over the 9th.
Because really, who (besides Komamura) actually likes Tousen?
How to make it work might be tricky, especially since Ichigo is very likely to burn bridges with Komamura unless he somehow just heavily cripples Tousen to the point where it's undisputable he's stronger than Tousen, but not outright kill him. I guess during the battle on the Hill, Ichigo beats up Byakuya faster and then moves to fight Tousen who's even worse than Byakuya in his need to uphold Law and Justice and Ichigo gets really pissed off (and it just works out to his favour that Tousen turns out to be a traitor
)

It's not really a matter of intelligence but knowledge. I'd expect 90% of the stuff going on in the SRDI to be way over Ichigo's head.
Getting a crash course in soul science just feels like a waste of time when he could be learning about stuff that's actually relevant to his survival and power (some of it might be helpful but only some, I'd expect). Delegating that stuff to someone with greater knowledge (Nemu) or someone with greater knowledge and intellgence (Urahara) is just the smart thing to do.
Though really, I'd only expect Ichigo to learn the basics of the Gotei and his division before heading to the human world and leaving them to look after themselves.
I'd be cool with Ichigo taking out Tousen though. Such an annoying guy.

Not sure if serious.
Ichigo wasn't worried about the hollow. That was sorted out the moment he defeated his inner hollow and didn't become a problem again until the Ulquiorra fight (and that was a different thing all together). After that he spent a month with the vizards to extend his mask's time limit and achieved very little.
