And if they did know how to control natural energy the byakugan user could stop their chakra control and still turn them to stone. I think it's too risky, as you essentially make people into really powerful mutants before they turn to stone, and it probably costs a LOT of chakra/nature energy which is also risky for the user.

I think the synergy with sensing and resilience is useful enough as it is, with Sage Mode enhancing all Hyuga techniques already. The stone thing may be circumstantially useful though.
