they could not always use the techniques they now can but that power was always in them deep down inside them

there is no reason to believe they would have to train to use them. obito instantly mastered Kamui the moment he awakened his Mangekyou sharingan so there is no reason that Naruto and Sasuke would not be able to master their new techniques instantly

Indra was born with half of the sages powers and Ashura awakened it through hard work and determination. thats why those who combine the power of uchiha and senju awaken the Rinnegan so its the same thing. he said i will give you my power all he is saying is here i will speed up the process of their growth.

That was obito's own power, and this is the sage's power that they are using, it hasn't been implied anywhere that the sage awoken their dormant powers but rather he simply gave each of them half of his power

you are not listening if Indra had half of the sages powers and Ashura had the other half and the sage gave Sasuke half of his powers and Naruto half of his powers it would imply he simply gave them Indra and Ashura's complete power I believe that Sasuke will without a doubt give Naruto his half of the sages power if Madara kills him so Naruto will possess the Rinnegan my theory is that Hagoromo told Sasuke that he was planning on giving Naruto the Rinnegan along with the Senjutsu of the six paths but Naruto still not ready to have all that power yet so he told him that he gives Sasuke the Rinnegan to give to Naruto when he's proven himself worthy of the power.
