I can agree and respect that, but with Jiraiya's previous statement and the fact that it hasn't been retconned or changed throughout the show, doesn't that add on to the consistency of the mechanics of genjutsu? That isnt inconsistant with the explanation i proposed

Hagoromo taught them how to mold it. Some instances that they he gave them chakra (I can believe both of those). But in the instance in the anime exclusive where people that got their nutrients from the God Tree, then the girl that Hagoromo knew became a victim of the Infinite Tsukuyomi (anime only, I don't know if it's canon or not though), then it still supports my belief that the God Tree's nutrients gave chakra long before Hagoromo. According to the Shueisha timeline, chapters 1-700 are the canon version of the events, any anime deviations are not canon. And Hagoromo didnt just teach them to mold chakra. He literally gave them the ability to create it

Not impossible to believe though, since Madara's knowledge of the past was stated to be forged, so the full history of the time of Kaguya is still unknown to a degree. Madara and Hagoromo's retelling of how humans got chakra are consistant
