Well Naruto was taking a risk here. Besides, Sasuke made it clear that he had no intention of risking his own life here (E.g. he was perfectly willing to kill a Shin child to protect himself or kill the original), though he was also fine with not killing unnecessarily here (e.g. by not nuking the place himself).

Well I'm sure he would have already analyzed their potential risk and took that into account, just like he observed how they referred to the original as father meaning that they were still pretty much kids who could still be molded. While sasuke made no such deduction even though they could potentially revive his clan it was just kill or not with complete indifference.

Oh and I now read your post with the potential for a "Kages level" army if I had before I would not have been redundant lol.
