We can literally put in every feat for them, and we know that Jiraiya loses.

That statement might've worked back, then but after more of their abilities were expanded upon and you know Itachi actually being a good guy, it is clear that Itachi was just saying that because he didn't want to fight an unnecessary battle. All he wanted to do was check on Danzo and Sasuke. See, but you're just assuming that...

We were given factual information, and you're putting your spin on it to appease your own conclusions on Itachi's abilities. You can call it a bluff, but that's just a personal "head-canon", though I am not trying to deny that Itachi is overpowered...

"Don't. Forget. The. Plot. Armour." is something I'd like to remind you and everyone else. Jiraiya took on Rinnegan users (and Konan, but who gives a damn...). Rinnegan is said to be the most broken ability in narutoverse, and Jiraiya chose to die during that fight.

And, as mentioned, Kishi made Susanoo way too overpowered, with little-to-no drawbacks..
