You couldn't be more wrong. Just because the Sharingan turned white does not mean it's a Byakugan. It's just a blind eye. The Byakugan first manifested in Kaguya Otsutsuki, who also had the Rinnegan and Sharingan powers. Her dojutsu was separated to her sons, Hagoromo and Hamura. Hagoromo had the Rinnegan, and Hamura had the Byakugan. Hagoromo's son, Indra, had the Sharingan. The Byakugan first manifested in Kaguya, then Hamura inherited it, and he is perceived by some to be the Hyuga clan ancestor because of it.
