Yes, I was just showcasing the fact that there is no Uchiha in power position as far we have seen if you exclude the Police Force who have no political power as evident that they need spies to infiltrate Konoha's leadership. I just realized Itachi being ANBU Captain means he was captain of a squad, but being Commander means you command the entire ANBU which comes directly under Hiruzen, that Commander even participated in the mission to capture Orochimaru. Itachi never done an A-rank mission on the other hand. Itachi was the highest an Uchiha can get.
