OK first i wuld like to say that you make great points all around. So here are my thougths on the matter.

I never realy mentioned that Shanks hates BB. I just said that their figth will happen eventualy. That is something that i do believe in strongly. Now as you said i dont particulary feel like Shanks hates BB or the other way around. Similary i dont think that luffy blames BB for Aces death ( i made another blog about what i think Shankses role in One piece is go chcek it out if you have the time :) ). But here is why i believe they will figth. BB wants o get to the top. That much is given. Now BB stated himself that during the marineford war he was still not strong enaugh to take on the red haired pirates. Which makes me think that BB is considering it. Look at Luffy. He wants to become the pirate king and he himself stated that he will take down all of the yonko (even Shanks). BB has to have a similar mind state to it. So yes BB is gunning for all of the yonko. So why Shanks in particular ? Well Shanks is his biggest threat. Shanks is incredibly cautious of BB. During the conversation with WB Shanks said that BB will eventualy come for WB title and he has. Shanks could see BB plan or atleast parts of it. Shanks is preparing himself for a major battle with BB. I dont think Shanks hates BB but he definately knows three things.

1. BB doesnt have morals nor shows mercy once he has you in his sigth.

2. BB is strong !

3. He wants to be the pirate king.

With this knowledge Shanks knows that sooner or later  BB will come after them. That is why i believe that Shanks recruited Marco and the other WB pirates. I strongly feel there will be a figth between them. In my blog " Shankses role in One piece" i also state that i believe BB has to cement himself as an enemy / rival in Luffys eyes because he didnt kill Ace. He just handed him to the marines. Rigth now Luffy has more of a reason to hate Akainu than he does to hate BB.
