The shadow clone technique started with this idea of it being a banned jutsu, and was pretty much only ever used by OG characters like Naruto, Hiruzen, Minato, Tobirama. Also, Naruto was/is the only one who uses it in a mass proportion. The others only ever made a few. Even Tobirama made like 2, as well as Hiruzen. And now, we have 6 years old doing it, and like a one week experienced one tomoe sharingan user. I personally dislike the idea. You're thinking of the wrong jutsu (Multiple Kage Bushin is forbidden).

Shadow Clones are not too uncommon. And it makes sense for Sarada to copy it, I always wondered why Sasuke never copied it from Naruto and applied it to his fighting style.

Also, she only made 1 clone. That is not at all impressive.
