He somehow can't replicate what Orochimaru, who met Naruto only a few times, could do? Oh surely he knew some medical ninja. Almost certainly the ones that died at Obito's hands.

The Manga had cases before where in-universe information was limited or incorrect. Remember Madara's backstory? We've had 3-4 in-universe revisions due to revelations, lies and incorrect assumptions. The juubi, the Rinnegan, the tablet, hagoromo, Kaguya.

In this specific case, Konoha may not have been aware of the resealing effect, since you know it never came up and that information isn't magically gained. Kurama would obviously know the full extent of his own power since he's 1000 years old, but Konoha had a handful of Kurama jinchuriki and Kushina was the first to have it extracted in a non-controlled manner. If she'd sealed Kurama again, that would be the first indication it was possible. Every other village was seeing their jinchuriki drop dead on Biju extraction with no exceptions (Since Uzumaki exclusively dealt with Konoha and Konoha kept it a secret).

That assumes Kushina would survive her Sealing technique. We've seen that people can cast a final technique yet die in the process (IE Kakashi's chakra was low, he used Kamui and died from the after-effects). So even if she was aware, her levels would be too low to seal Kurama and survive long enough for the resealing effect to kick in. We already saw Minato couldn't seal the Full Kurama (hence the Reaper Jutsu).

it seems to me you made the resealing effect a retcon in your own headcanon because you disliked it. All the stuff i say is not contradicted by the Manga. It's not the first time in-universe knowledge is revealed to be false, for actual reasons. In this case the reasons are due to the nature of jinchuriki programs, or due to established effects of chakra exhaustion.

I also don't see why you don't understand that Minato had no time to get a medical ninja. Read the Manga, and point out to me at what point he could've gotten a medical ninja. Unless you want to imply that Minato would be a heartless bastard that would sacrifice the lives of hundreds if not thousands to buy his wife some time, with questionable survival chances.
