If Itachi can make it weak enough to be broken, why did he use such an extreme variation on Genin Sasuke that made him go into a coma for a long period of time which required Tsunade to heal? The answer is, he has no control over those aspects. Only the illusion itself. He didn't use a weak version on Sasuke that could be broken. He used Tsukuyomi and Sasuke broke free cause of what Itachi said. Itachi has to use a large amount of Chakra to use Tsukuyomi, or he would of been able to at 30 percent. Itachi has said Sasuke can break free. Sasuke has broken free. There is no evidence that shows Sasuke cannot. The 2nd Databook confirms this when it states how it can be defeated. It would convince Kakashi that Sasuke could possibly beat Itachi. Otherwise Kakashi might investigate Itachi, if Itachi did lose, because it wouldn't make sense that Sasuke won. Let's assume Itachi did think someone with a sharingan who's an Uchiha could possibly beat him, it doesn't mean Sasuke could during his battle with him. Remember what Zetsu said about what's important is the variance in strength between Itachi and Sasuke? That works much more in Itachi's favor than Sasuke.

Itachi had the superior doujutsu. Itachi used one of the strongest genjutsu Itachi's skill with genjutsu eclipsed Sasuke too.

No matter how you look at it, in skill or the power of his doujutsu he surpassed Sasuke. The reason Sasuke went into a coma wasn't, because of the strength of Tsukuyomi, but the content of the illusions he experienced. It has nothing to do with strength of it, Sasuke would felt pain regardless of if it was strong or weak, what mattered most was the content of the illusion, in that situation.

Just, because Tsukuyomi uses a large amount of chakra doesn't mean he can't increase the amount. It says nowhere that Sasuke can break Tsukuyomi used to it's fullest capacity.
