In The Last, he was using Sage Nine Tails Chakra Mode, so that wasnt a design change. Looking at "gaiden", all i see is that his new cloak is actually his Hokage outfit drenched in Kurama Mode chakra. He even forms seal patterns unlike 6P Sage mode. He uses no jutsu that attribute to 6P sage mode. I don't see why.

Back to the topic at hand, the only true difference between Naruto and Sasuke/Madara that i can think of that can explain Truthseeking Balls is the ability to use Sage Mode (rather than just sage chakra).

EDIT:

Madara uses "truth seeking" abilities to form a rod. This rod is made like a fluid truthball, not like the Black Rods. So maybe Madara has the ability to create this Truthseeking matter? Because to be honest, i think it's ridiculous that TS balls would be something you can permanently lose. If what i interpreted is true, then the losing of Truthballs is perhaps a lack of true ability, in this case possessing both the 6P Senjutsu and a Natural Rinnegan.
