I doubt Kishimoto was thinking about all of that when he and his co-workers made Toneri slice the Moon in half. They most likely just did it as a testament to his power, and the Tenseigan is stated to be equal to the Rinnegan in power. However Toneri doesn't just have Tenseigan, he has his TCM which makes him much stronger than usual.

@Uchihamasters Naruto was in a complete TBSM after 2 years of mastering Kurama's full power. He also focused all of his power directly into his hand in order to block Toneri's attack. The susanoo's defense is dependant on it's user and it's stage, so I don't think that statement is really a fair comparison. I guess iphe has apoint because naruto trained hard and i mean really hard to accomplish on what he is now and at the last moments were enhanced by hagoromo to make him understand the nature of things so that he can perform jutsus with ease whereas toneri only had the tenseigan for merely weeks and is showing potential during his first use so for me ot would indicate that with further more training toneri's power and skill would grow that would make him more powerful or if not on par with naruto hence sasuke's lvl.......... This is just speculation though
