Exactly, other being a cool, kick ass character, there really isn't any story element to suggest him joining the crew compare to say Vivi or Hankcock or even Shirahoshi to this point....

Brooke, to a lesser extent, was also in the same shoes as Jimbei, in that he already had a previous career as a pirate and yet he still joined the crew.

Yes but Brook's crewmate were all dead and he was pretty much out of commission for 50 years so he is not as experienced as you makes him out to be. Also, with Hody out of picture (soon) there have to be a stable force to keep people form Fishmen District in place and I just don't see Hachi as that guy. But as I say, for someone who didn't join WB back then despise his immense admiration, what makes anyone think he'll join SH and defer himself to Luffy as an underling?
