Also, his “fast-paced” fighting style already seemed to have peaked, so IMO he wouldn’t have become much more powerful have him not die. Also it seemed that he concluded himself unable to add chakra nature to the rasengan, so that flopped as well for him. Ok, but at least consider the fact that all the sage mode users have found ways to use it effectively in combat. I don't see why given the opportunity Minato wouldn't as well. It took Minato three years to create the rasengan, it shows dedication and commitment to a technique. According to Minato's personality, he wouldn't start something he couldn't finish, or do things without purpose.
