@Squinty97, I thought it was a general notion about Momoshiki's emergence, so my bad if it wasn't your idea too. Nonetheless, I wouldn't say that the efforts of Team 7 were completely meaningless since they stripped Boro of his main advantage, the overpowered healing, and made him go into rampage. If they had managed to get out of the scene before Boro reached them, they would've avoided dealing with him and still saved Naruto.

@UltimaDude, as I've mentioned, Boro losing his regeneration and mutating uncontrollably was already a sign of weakness. Similarly, Momoshiki's ability to easily obliterate Boro was also the proof of his weakness rather than Momoshiki's strength - Team 7 should've been able to finish him off on their own (for example, with Rasengan: Unison) if they weren't out of chakra. (with no regeneration, Boro's body crumbled like a clay). For the other part, Kama enhancing physical capabilities was stated as one of it's features, so Momoshiki didn't do anything special in that regard as well, Boruto could've done the same if he mastered his Kama properly. So, technically, any Kara member not in such a miserable state as Boro should be able to fend off Momoshiki in Boruto's body. And they aren't the type of guys who will easily allow to absorb their chakra, and even Momoshiki opted to use Naruto's chakra instead of trying to steal it from Boro. Again, Momoshiki or not, Kama doesn't bring more chakra than the user themselves possess, so if it hits zero without any convenient source like Naruto, it's over for both of them. Hence, Momoshiki cannot save Boruto in every situation. The issue is, no guarantee he'll always do that willingly. In fact, I believe the point of the whole chapter was to show Boruto in the ehnanced Kama form with a horn, like Kawaki.
