Well, I think that Itachi/Izuna would be still at a disadvantage in wielding Rinnegan compared to even Obito. Let's put it simple: these two have only a regular Uchiha chakra, not Indra's chakra (because they aren't his reincarnates). Although Obito possessed a similar regular chakra, he had an addition of Hashi's artificial body, i.e. a source of Asura's chakra. I admit that the eyes' previous homage by Itachi/Izuna could probably make their adjustment to the Rinnegan easier, yet chakra-wise, they have neither Indra's nor Asura's chakra or DNA traits, while it seems that only people with these traits should be more prone to the Rinnegan use.
