@Kakashi, I was wondering about the same thing too. I have only one answer in my mind, i.e., it would make the fight too simple and simple. Since Sasuke Vs Kinshiki took place in the prologue, the writers had to make the fight scene exciting for the audience which they did, by making Sasuke have a narrow escape. This would have caused a Butterfly Effect later on. Since Kinshiki is dead, Momoshiki has no choice but to return to his planet( He's no match for the Kages and Sasuke alone) and the show's future "face" would not get a chance to show his untapped potential.
