I don't even know about the anime version of whatever.

And no, Elveonora, that does not mean what you think it means. It's a pseudo kekkei tota because instead of merging three natures, they merged two kekkei genkai that share one nature. Merging three natures = real kekkei tota, merging two kekkei genkai that share one nature = pseudo kekkei tota (because it's only three natures thanks to the one they share). How is that so incredibly hard to grasp? The novel version does not contradict or retcon the manga explanation in any way, it even reconfirms it.
