Take it from a prospective author. The Uchiha are a plot device. The story is called Naruto because its about Naruto. The Uchiha represent the opposite ideal of Naruto, nothing more.

As a fellow prospective author, I agree with you that the Uchiha are a plot device. I also think that their impact upon the plot is far more significant than that of Naruto, propelling them to the foreground, with the protagonist simply being our view into the world shaped by the Uchiha.

Also, I would love to see your work sometime.
