@Killman when has tskyuomi been described to have a windup? Since the beginning all it has required was his MS active and for him to activate it just like a regular genjutsu. It requires more chakra to be moudled but not buildup, but I maybe mistaken. Amaterasu had a build up for some reason, as there was a pressure in the air, the user must focus their vision, and then blood drops. But susano'o and tsukuyomi have been launched without any notable delays. Itachi used tsukyuomi in the same frame sasuke used basic sharingan genjutsu in order to free themselves from kabuto's genjutsu.

also, kabuto was far from optimizing the use of his edo tensei even in autopilot. He had good frameworks though. But literally what did itachi do to bee? shuriken jutsu, fire style, and basic genjutsu, which are actually staples for 99 percent of the uchiha, something well within kabuto's knowledge, he spent three years with sasuke after all. Itachi in character would have abused his hand seal speed even more, and in the same frame he threw the second round of shuriken at bee there would have been an exploding shadow clone in bee's blindspot. He overlays attacks even more efficiently than was shown. We already know from previous battles he can casually weave a clone while in a high speed shuriken clash.

Also, for nagato, power and utility was his main attribute as a shinobi with above average intelligence. But his arsenal is still extremely varied. and he would have habits for the methods and order in which he would use the jutsu. Would in character nagato open every fight with chibaku tensei? Would he choose to summon his bird first? he stayed true to the chameleon tactics, but how would in character nagato deal with the smokescreens? Kabuto just had him stand there and wait to get rekt. he didn't spam ashura missles or anything like that, or even try summoning his other summons. what about his elemental jutsu? a wind style could have been useful to disperse the smoke. So in character nagato is much of a open canvas.
