I Do agree with your point of characters being able to get somewhere due to their own devices but with the integration of aliens like you said and the fact that even orochimaru and kurenai can't even touch itachi shows that the gap in power between ninja clans and just basic clans is so huge that they cannot compete in the days of gods and aliens and as kabuto once said those you got none can take from those who do

there are no basic clans. anyone who is basic has never been proven to be part of any clans. there is no Namikaze clan, there is no Haruno clan etc.clans such as the Nara, the akamitchi, etc are all powerful clans with incredibly potent hidden jutsu.  Kakashi from what we see got his rep and majority of his power set from obito a uchiha clan member and as he was known worldwide as kakashi of the sharrigan

Kakashi got the nickname of the copy ninja from his use of the Sharingan. he had skill before hand and still has top notch skill

If every one has equal chances in the world of naruto let's see if neji the prodigy of the hyuga could even touch shisui let alone itachi in a fight.

when Neji was a kid he had skill beyond that of Sasuke and would have kicked kid sasuke's ass. as he got holder his power and skill increased exponentially. there is no doubt in my mind that had he lived he would have grown up to be a superior shinobi than Shisui.

'''What happened to the days when the byagugan was stated as on par to the sharrigan and when kage level fights were using multiple shriken jutsu. I See the Otsutsuki closer to gods rather than aliens but that's just me. I Think the notion of the senju being a overpowered clan is dumb as the only person who has supreme relevance in the clan is hashirama due his wood release ninjitsu and unlike the senju the uchiha can all have magakyo shrrigans under certain conditions which are specified in the series.''' the Byakugan is on par with the Sharingan. the eyes themselves are useless without a person to use them. its the shinobi that employs the doujutsu that makes it powerful. it was stated that the Byakugan has superior analytical skills, grants the Hyuga the ability to see the chakra network. see vast distances and many other powerful advantages. the problem is chakra. if you don't have much chakra you can't employ your tools as efficiently. if the Hyuga member has massive chakra levels than they would be an absolute beast and only a handful of Uchiha even awaken the sharingan let alone the Mangekyou
