While I might agree, remember that Itachi was able to pressure Kakashi, Kurenai, and Asuma. He barely opened his eyes and Kakashi already was freaking out telling them to shut their eyes. All three are experienced Jonin (Kurenai less so, but her Genjutsu skills are supposedly top-notch).

So will Kakashi and Gai make Itachi strain if he goes full out? Kakashi mentioned he hadn't shown half of his power before Tsukuyomi. I know the battle is in part 2, but is everyone really sure that they'd handle it so well? 30% of Itachi was keeping up well with Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura, and Chiyo. Kakashi got stronger since, but that was only 30% of Itachi.
