Madara got his Rinnegan once he was old right? Maybe his lack of field usage is what made Nagato more adept at using it than him.

Itachi had that fight totally under control. Not all powerful, sure. That would make Sasuke not all powerful either then....which is also absurd. Naruto with SPSM and full Kurama alone makes him arguably the strongest in the series still, and there's only so much anyone can do to restore Might Guy's leg after an attack like that, though it's still pretty clear to me that Naruto too, got plot limited. Madara got his Rinnegan approaching the end of his natural life span, but he could still use the Outer Path, summon the Statue, etc...not to the extent of Nagato though.
