It makes more sense that the Chakra Cloak was different in the 4th Shinobi World War because Naruto was actively drawing on the power of the other Tailed Beasts for it. Each one was in that fight with him, unlike in The Last or in Boruto. Now, they can contact him and he can contact them, but he isn't drawing on their power for his battles anymore.

Chakra Cloaks were never a part of any Sage Mode, they were always part of Tailed Beast Chakra.

And Naruto has shown that the cross-slit pupils without pigmentation is its own mode, when he first showed it. Idk why there's so much confusion
