I'll see if I can answer some of your questions from my reasoning:

1) When Naruto first appeared after being revived by Obito, he had the Sage toad-slats with the Kurama-slit eyes, without the toad-eyeshadow. And parried Madara's TSB. That was SPSM without KCM. In the new Boruto Era, Naruto doesn't seem to want to use only SPSM. And prefers to use both SPSM and KCM mode together.

2) As far as I recall, Naruto lost all of his TSB in his final fight against Sasuke.

3) It's said that Ashura got the "body of the sage". Which can be interpreted as chakra reserves, stamina/durability.

4) Probably, for plot purposes/foreshadowing. It's also probably why, Indra's Susanoo is similar to Sasuke's.

5) Idk, but if we logically infer that Madara got Rinnegan from adding Hashirama's chakra to his body. Then going down the other logical path probably adding Indra's cells/chakra to Ashura incarnate would result in SPSM being awakened eventually.

6) It's possible that Hagoromo's influence resulted in a unique mutation for Sasuke's MS. That allows him to use sharingan and Rinnegan at the same time. As recall, Sasuke already received Hashirama's chakra directly, before he confronted Madara the second time.

7) Implied SPSM.

8) Maybe because the Ten-tails has been merged with Kaguya, and Kaguya had it?

9) War cloak?

10) It seems Obito wanted Naruto to become a Pseudo-jinchuriki for the Juubi. Also, he was aware that to initiate a chakra tug-of-war with juubi-Madara, Naruto needed a way to latch on to all the tailed beasts chakra. As was done when Naruto pulled out all the bijuu from Obito, but couldn't latch onto Gyuki and Shukaku's chakra. Also, he possibly postulated that Naruto could awaken SPSM.
