Also Obito giving Kakashi his chakra made Kakashi manifest Obito's Sharingan, so having Hagoromo's chakra should make one manifest his Rinnegan. The only logical explanation therefore is that Hagoromo gave Naruto only more Ashura chakra or so, or in case he gave him the full deal, then Naruto's Ashura's chakra hasn't mixed yet with the Indra part, but that doesn't explain why it did in case of Sasuke. Maybe bacause sasuke already had an EMS it allowed the the Rinnegan to skip development stages
