Again, the movie has Sasuke with Rinnegan, Hokage Kakashi, whole Kurama, Truth Seeking Balls, Hamura etc. Keep in mind that time-wise, Naruto's cloak takes up much much more screen time than any of the other things. Kishimoto could easily tell the movie production things like "Kakashi is hokage, sasuke misses an arm, Kurama is whole". Any errors are relatively easily fixed there. A change in Naruto design however would take up a considerable amount of the total production time.

Also to clarify: I meant that The Last was in production before SPSM was revealed.

Elveonora wrote: And I disagree with the cloak. Completely ignore the movie, those designs are simply wrong. The design in Gaiden and Boruto manga is canon. I vastly prefer the Boruto Manga design anyway, but i think it's worth pointing out that the design does in fact change with the clothes Naruto wears.

Whereas the Chakra Modes mentioned in the thread has the ability to actually change the users physically into chakra, as shown when both Toneri and Naruto displayed the ability to put their arms into Hinata in The Last. IMHO things like chakra arms are just a more advanced form of control over the chakra mode. Considering how few people even use Chakra modes, i think it's clear that it's a fairly difficult technique. It's easy for jinchuriki because they have so much chakra.
