But the fact he said " I figured a rebellion might happen down the line" didn't surprise me. Hashriama put the past behind him and moved on. He didn't show the uchiha any mistreatment just because of their genetic disposition. Danzo grew up believing the uchiha were a problem and at first opportunity he used tobirama's policies to set up a way where he could trap the uchiha into wanting a rebellion, and that was his excuse to eradicate the clan once and for all. Danzo wearing the eyes on his arm is a symbol for the fact he doesn't believe the uchiha are properly suited to wear those eyes since they are emotionally unstable. Danzo as we know is the opposite of that, he is intelligent, but highly paranoid( even more than tobirama), cold, and brutal. His Anbu organization forces people to kill their brothers in an attempt to have their emotions destroy ed and become cold blooded assasins. So it just goes to show how the uchiha were stereotyped for being highly emotional and thus getting even more powerful the more emotions they feel. I understand why one would excercise caution with something like that, but it's basically the same logic that was used to justify the mistreatment of jinhcurki- fear. You know how sometimes a mentally unstable person gets their hand on a gun and causes a mass shooting? Imagine a whole clan of people who have tendencies towards mental instability, and along with a gun they get their hands on super eyeball powers that allow them to do things like copy other powers, create magical demon armor, and shoot black flames among other things. That's why Tobirama didn't want them having too much power.
