Yes, and it would have an impact if: - Sound and Sand invasion arc from part 1, where Konoha was partly destroyed and rebuilt, didn't happen - didn't happen Pain Invasion arc, where Konoha was mostly destroyed with at least two characters (Kakashi and Shizune) killed. Then one magic jutsu and everyone are alive again and village just rebuilt with time.

It is still Narutoverse, where people die only when you see them die (and even then it may not be permanent). For the entire series important Konoha's casualties are: Hiruzen, Minato, Kushina, Jiraiya, Asuma, Neji, Shikaku, Inoichi. So 8 characters total, with two of them dead before series started and three lost during big war. Now they want me to believe in Boruto it will be at least doubled during single event? Sorry, can't.
