It was whether clones could utilise ocular techniques or not, using Itachi and his Mangekyo as an example. I stipulated that Nagato's clones could use the abilities of the Rinnegan as well, excluding summoning the Gedo Mazo.

Also, just to bring this up if there is still doubt as to whether Nagato can create shadow clones, but Nagato could potentially create different types of clones too. Nagato was said to have mastered, not learned, mastered the 5 nature transformations. I think it would not be unreasonable to believe that mastering a nature transformation would include the ability to create a water clone, or a lightning clone etc, given that creating a basic clone is something you learn in the Academy.
