What's silly is not acknowledging that the scene itself shows Neji using the Byakugan and attributing the information he was gathering to "these eyes." Yea but if you pay attention to the scene he is pointing out body language that can be seen with normal human eyes. He doesnt need the Byakugan to see and breakdown.

The series has shown multiple parties using multiple techniques to accomplish exactly what Kakashi accomplished with the Sharingan and Raikiri. Sage Mode Threat Perception, Mind's Eye of the Kagura, Multiple Sensor nin's abilities, like Mu, and yes, the Byakugan. Out of your list only Sage mode has been shown to have near-precognitive abilites like the Sharingan.

If Byakugan had predictive abilities Sasuke might have mentioned it when showing Boruto the Chidori since Boruto has the potential to use the Byakugan

I never said Neji needed the Byakugan to cold read. If you read what I said properly, I merely said that the Byakugan enhances cold reading and that anyone can do it! That wasnt a response to you. You clearly acknowledged that tge Byakugan makes it easier.

The sharingan being the only thing useful for a chidori/raikari jutsu is an absolute joke. Naruto managed to use the rasengan perfectly fine, no prediction abilities required. Rasengan doesnt need predictive abilities to use and it was never stated that it did.

Besides the Byakugan would be way better for the type of jutsu. It's all well and good prediction the person in front of you, but what about any enemies to the side or behind you? Given how its suppose to overwhelm the target with speed, the Sharingan user would see other enemies before closing in on the target.

Generally the user shouldnt be using with with too many enemies around anyways. It's a 1 hit kill assissination technique meant to take out 1 enemy.

Byakugan also doesnt have the predictive capabilities that would be needed to make adjustments if needed. In VOTE1 Sasuke couldnt touch Naruto until his 3rd tomoe came in and then he was literally seeing movements before they happened and then Naruto couldnt touch Sasuke
