It clearly shows it was intended only for uzumakis.. I would argue that a number of Rinnegan Powers are comparable to Mangekyou powers. IE Shin's mangekyou grants limited telekinesis (comparable to Deva). Susanoo is comparable in function to Ashura path.

Similarly, the Black Rods are comparable to wood release in it's binding and restricting function (Even more obvious when Obito used it against the Hidden Mist ninja).
