Even if Itachi did use it, it wouldn't change the fact that Nagato us an exceptional sensor.

What blade strike? The Susanoo's? Also Nagato has shown to absorb a large amount of heated water in a matter of seconds so absorbing the Amaterasu should be no problem. Also a "big wall of fire". Itachi has yet show to be able to create big amounts of black flames. Maybe after using it repetitively but even then he can't span it even if being at good health unlike Nagato who has waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy more chakra than Itachi and can afford to span jutsus.
