After that, he never used more than a handful until he used it against Gaara while enraged (and after learning how to consciously tap into Kurama's chakra), then against Kimimaro while enraged.

It's difficult to nail down exactly what his base strength is, especially since his seal has been making him stronger since birth.

Either way, i don't see a point in debating this ad infinitum. Boruto using 3 shadowclones is a great feat for a non-jinchuriki, and judging from Naruto's words to Konohameru, nobody taught Boruto his elemental releases.
