Don't make excuses. I proved my point and you just try to justify it and there is no justifying it. I really try to avoid doing this, but what the hell are you even talking about. You asked why, if Nagato just pushed the fire away (spoiler alert he did), the fire disappeared. I told you why. Also, going out and being extinguished are two totally different things. Extinguishing a fire is the act of willingly stopping it from burning, which only Sasuke and maybe Madara can do with Amaterasu; the point we are making is that no one can use any means or technique to extinguich Amaterasu besides these two, with Madara being questionable. Going out is it not having anything to burn, because it's fire and it needs that. The idea that you are proving us wrong because fire decided to act like fire is insane.

the definition of extinguish is to cause (a fire or light) to cease to burn or shine. so that is exactly what nagato did. its called cause and effect nagato used shinra tensei to blast the flames away because they were no longer in contact with anything they burnt out instantly so that is by definition extinguishing them. so not only madara, sasuke or nagato could do that for instance the byakugan allows one to shield themselves from attack by putting a layer of chakra on their flesh which protect against all attacks they would then be able to use rotation to blast the flames away and because they would no longer be in contact with anything they would burn out instantly ie cause and effect
