Not a single Ototsuki has shown it or even seem to be aware of what it is. They recognize the Rinnegan though. Also, it is never even hinted he stole them, THAT would be the "leap in logic to try and validate this fan theory." Plus Madara literally said Kabuto had got it wrong (Kabuto thought he evolved the Sharingan into the rinnegan) and the power had been his all along. So you are using a Fan theory to explain the what now? And Why should I validate the fan theory? As for the debate It would be better to wait for in-story explanation. Something which they confirm officially since Hagoromo's case can no longer be taken. And when did Madara say that Kabuto got it wrong? I am quite curious? Plus and how can you grow eyes on your hands? It seems more transplant than actual awakening, You get forehead Rinnegan by eating Chakra fruit Not on hands. First off, how the hell does getting eyes transplanted on your hands make any sense in any world lol (Not a job at you, just read the sentence out loud, its weird). Secondly, no Hagaromo's case doesn't need reexplained, the anime was just stupid and gave the Sharigan to a bunch of people as filler. Thirdly, chapter 560. When Kabuto is going on his rant to Madara about how improved he made him, Madara tells him he is confused and that he didn't create this power. So literally just a few sentences after that which you are using to say this argument is right "Kabuto saying it did progress like that" Madara tells him he is wrong about it (what exactly he was wrong about actually is left unknown....just "power")

As for Kabuto being wrong. This actually doesn't make much sense. As the only thing he could be wrong about is the eyes or how you go about getting them. Actually, it makes less sense, considering that Kabuto actually did enhance his body, yet most like to say that that is what he was wrong about (Madara actually confirms he was enhanced beyond his prime right after he immobilizes Hashirama). He also confirms Kabuto actually gave him wood release (right after using it). So again, the only thing he can be wrong about were the eyes or whatever "power" was in reference to.

Honestly, I think most of the problem with this debate is people mentioning Anime only stuff in the context of it being Canon. Hagoromo does not have the Sharingan. Thats official. But the anime gave it to him as filler and i guess try to make sense of all the Sharingan non-sense.

To address something else you said. Eating a fruit does not give you a forehead sharingan. It didn't give it to Momoshiki (who ate a few), Kinshiki or Urashiki (it's implied all Ototsuki eat them). Why Kaguya got that is unknown, although it was somehow linked to the Fruit. My opinion is, each fruit gains unique properties based on the world it is grown but we won't know (although...did Kishimoto like Turles enough to really make his plot a major story lol)
