1. Why Urahara? Because he was the only one smart enough to come up with a way to stop Aizen. Yamamoto couldn't have done it as he already tried to stop Aizen and had to sacrifice his arm in the process He was down for the count and failed. Ichigo was the only one left with the power needed to stop Aizen and only Urahara was smart enough to figure out a way to put an end to it. Orihime was trapped in Hueco Mundo, even if she was there, she doesnt have the resolve to reject the Hogyoku's existence. She isn't at that level yet.

2. Aizen wasn't Aizen after the Hogyoku. That was the entire point of the Deicide arc pretty much, he abandoned strategy and planning for pure power, which was his downfall.

3.How can you not see the decision Shunsui made here? He sacrificed one player to gain another strong enough to defeat the leader of the enemies. Kenpachi is now the strongest captain in terms of raw power now. He has gained the strength to cut down Stern Ritter with relative ease now. Yes, it cost them their best healer, but in doing so, they have a way to win the war now.

4. Im sorry if you didnt pick up on the foreshadowing to Kenpachi's true power, but it was there. You can't say an author made something come out of nowhere when it was foreshadowed and then just say "well I didnt see it, so it doesn't count". Look at the way Kenpachi powered up during his fights with Ichigo and Nnoitra. Every time he seemed to be outclassed, he drew out more power. No, we never knew explicitly that he had mental locks but we knew for a while he had some kind of untapped power. And now he knows his shikai, so you can expect his power to sky rocket even more.
