Thing is, it would be boring to see Naruto or Sasuke finish opponents in 2 seconds, so of course they would make them struggle a little bit to make things interesting. Also, i think that after the Momoshiki arc we won't see Naruto or Sasuke fight for a while. Boruto and the other generation kids became progressively stronger, and as we've seen from the latest Boruto manga chapter, they will be facing pretty strong opponents alone. They need to build their story, and let Naruto and Sasuke aside for a while, which i'm sure they will.
