It's more like this: "Chuck Norris can be beat with moves like dragon uppercut and hurricane kick." And then I say "Chuck Norris can't be beat with any moves."

1. It is different, I said the scenes are the same (meaning he talks about the same stuff). And Tsukuyomi was said to be unbreakable in the manga, depending on which translation you use.

The interpretation of Itachi's broad statement, that beating Tsukuyomi means beating Itachi doesn't make sense. How could he claim that defeating a singular facet of his arsenal in it's totality equates to officially taking him down? Why would a Uchiha beating Tsukuyomi mean they beat Itachi as a whole? It is obvious, you're ignoring it because it doesn't fit your theory. It was never mentioned that Itachi sent a preprogramed Genjutsu out either. I've even given you examples of his interactions within Tsukuyomi lol.

That's a horrible way to put it. If you want to get as close to what Itachi said as possible, here: during a fight with Chuck Norris "Chuck Norris can only be beat by Bruce Lee... his defense is unbreakable." So, what do we gather? The fighters engaged with Mr. Norris can't break through his defense, but Bruce Lee would beat him. Lol it's not hard to put two and two together.

No, you're getting confused. Itachi says an Uchiha with the same blood can beat him. So, how would they beat him if they can't get past Tsukuyomi? Defeating Tsukuyomi is a prerequisite to beating Itachi. He's not saying that if you beat Tsukuyomi, you beat Itachi. The statement is saying that in order to beat Itachi at all, you have to be able to break Tsukuyomi.
