Sorry, I wrote the wrong name. I completely agree with the points you made in your previous statement and I feel that ratio is fairly accurate, kudos.

In the final battle against Sasuke, he was noted to have completely exhausted his chakra reserves to the point where he shouldn't even been able to use jutsu yet he was able to use the Susanoo long enough where he defeated Orochimaru and could have also finished off Sasuke.

Itachi has low chakra reserves but he makes up for this flaw by being extremely efficient and with his absolutely ridiculous chakra control (which allowed him to use such a taxing technique while running out of chakra).

Itachi's blurred vision usually would be a giant hindrance, but Jiraiya's moves are more direct and would be easier for Itachi to follow and avoid/block.
