Shikai Byakuya was quite obviously superior to Bankai Renji in Soul Society arc. Bankai Byakuya was leaps and bounds ahead. Though I do agree the difference seems a little exaggerated. How much are you going to push Renji's power through the training for Bankai?

Other notes... Sado should definately be higher... he was basically fighting on equal footing against Shrieker, even though he could only detect his presence with Rukia's instructions. And the gap between Sado and Orihime after they explored their powers should also be higher.

Meh, I'd also say that the Menos Grande and consequently Ichigo's power-up against it should be higher, but that's largely an opinionated view.
