What I'm saying is that despite him knowing how powerful the Nine-Tails was, he expected that small amount of force to do something to that Naruto form. Are we saying that he'll just know how much force to use against Susanoo when he knows nothing about it either. He would most likely test it out. Also, Susanoo is much more sturdy and durable than that form of Naruto.

This is a good point. That ST wasn't weak either, Pain was pushed back(Damn was Naruto pissed. It's moments like these where I think how did Naruto forget about Hinata. Makes The Last kinda pointless but I guess he was fighting a war.) The whole pushing Susanoo thing, It just depends on how much you value Yata mirror. If It can protect against most things then I would expect a ST of whatever size to be just air to Itachi. Even if its a weapon/tool it would negate it before any shock comes to the Susanoo's arm.
