Yes, that's true. But you have to consider controlled Nagato was fast enough to warp to B after Shinra Tenseiing him away. Not as fast as the real Nagato would be but as Naruto already said controlled Edo Nagato was on a different level than the 6 Paths themselves. So Itachi's sword's speed should be easily sufficient. Only Deva Path Pain with Chibaku Tensei should pose a true threat to him here. So with knowledge it comes down to Itachi vs Deva Path and who lands either Chibaku Tensei or SoT first. Without knowledge the chances tilt to Deva Paths favor as he can wear down Itachi's chakra some before using Chibaku Tensei.
