Length isn't a problem with a sword that big. And Itachi could easily move to reach his target if need be. He could also use other attacks, but only bring up the shield to negate any attack. And why are you bringing up Nagato using the soul suction technique on Itachi? Itachi uses the Susanoo as a last resort due to its chakra consuming nature, but as an Edo, Itachi didn't have worry about that. The war was the perfect time to show us this marvelous weapon that can block any attack. But, no, we get crap shit of it. Oh well, hype will be hype. Feats will be feats. It doesn't have high feats. He's better off using Susanoo as he did anyway.
