Well, I don't have anything against Mitsuki's SM. Fistly, we don't even know how powerful is it, since Mitsuki has never demonstrated it in an actual battle. Secondly, what's more important, the series prove Kakashi's words about each generation surpassing the previous one. For example, Naruto struggled in mastering the Rasengan for some weeks, and then struggled hundred times more (with shadow clones' help) in developing it into Rasenshuriken. Itwasn't easy for him in any event, but he surpassed both Minato and Kakashi because he managed to complete the last task these two failed to achieve. At the same time, Boruto already surpassed Naruto in this regard by mastering Rasengan in mere days and adding Wind Release into it without even realising it. That's the major example, but among the new generation, we can see similar examples, though on a lesser scale (Shikadai's modified Shadow Possession, Chocho's use of Partial-Multi Size already in academy etc).
