i agree, it is a plothole indeed, a bigger one is that if nagato was able to use the 7th path, he could have used it in order to revive his friend, furthermore, if obito simply brought Rins corpse to nagato, obito could have influenced him in reviving both of them (and it would work since madara was also resurrected, and he was longer dead than the other ones) ^_^ That is not much of a plot hole, the user must sacrifice himself to use Rinne tensei, most likely Konan wouldn't let Nagato sacrifice himself to revive anyone and Obito wanted to change the world, not just bringing Rin back.
