Now I know this is against the rules, but please hear me out first
According to the rules,
"eventually we finally reached the conclusion that the collapse / merging of Earth, Soul Society and Hueco Mundo is not a direct feat, but rather a natural collateral-effect of the flow of souls being unbalanced , and as such characters cannot scale to it."
This is completely wrong, and while I agreed to it initially, I went back and did my research to debunk this.
Let's see what the Soul King does,
According to the Bleach wiki
"The Soul King's sole purpose is to regulate the flow of souls into and out of Soul Society and keep the flow stable. Without the Soul King, the balance is lost and everything that is linked to Soul Society or made in it, as well as the Dangai, Hueco Mundo and the Human World will fall apart"
Notice how it's called falling apart, keep this in mind for the rest of this post
"Yhwach bashes Tensa Zangetsu out of Ichigo's hand and engulfs him and the rest of the Seireitei in his darkness before declaring that everything will lose its form and become one before his power."
So, what the lack of the Soul King does is make the world fall apart, yet what Yhwach was doing was merging the worlds together.
This is referenced again in Chapter 686 of Bleach, where he states to Ichigo "thanks to you, life and death will not lose their current form and people will continue living in fear of death".
Let me further explain this
Yhwach had intended to merge the three worlds so that life and death as they were would loose their current forms, i.e. people on Earth and Souls(basic life and death) would live without the fear of death as referenced here.
TL;DR
What Soul King prevented = Destruction of worlds where they would collapse due to lack of Soul Balance
What Yhwach wanted to = Merge the worlds to erase the current concepts of life and death so that no one would live in the fear of Death ever again.
Hence, Yhwach should be upgraded to 5-B
