That's true, but it doesn't fit Boruto's appearance, personality, namesake, ect imo at all. I'd rather see him combine Rasengan and Chidori, and use a bunch of other techs than do the chains. Though if Himawari uses them, that would be cool.

So he should be a crossover clone of his dad and his master (?) in every single thing instead, and display the techs we've been seeing for the past several hundred chapters. Great. What does someone's appearance even have to do with the jutsu they use honestly? Or personality for that matter? What does Neji even have to do with Rasengan and Chidori if we're going with namesakes? Is your logic really "He looks like Naruto, so he should use Naruto's techs"?

And as for the other thing, transmigrant chakra doesn't work that way, or it would have been diluted beyond all recognition after a thousand years and no-one would be able to recreate Hagoromo's power. It does involve the soul - it's pretty clear that the Narutoverse souls and spirits are chakra constructs, as can be seen with Hagoromo, Obito and every Edo Tensei ever. The Senju are hardier and have more chakra and etc. than most. But they don't have Ashura's power. Because they don't all have Ashura's soul. Only Naruto (as of right now) does. And when he dies that soul will move in its entirety to someone else.
