All of them have been shown to be very smart and shrewd, not to mention uber-powreful. It's quite clear that the manga's name should have actually been Uchiha Shippuden, as they get all the glory. but there is a obvious (and understandable)reason for this: the enemies in (serious-)shounen(-storys) are always OP, all uchihas have at some point played a major antagonistic role in the story, therefore, they needed to be more powerful than the MC ^_^ Did it really have to be the Uchiha all the time? Why not show some uber-powerful Hyuuga for a change? Uchihas' powers seem nothing more than free upgrades. Sure it comes with emotional trauma, but every ninja in Narutoverse inevitably experiences emotional trauma through constant warfare/espionage missions. Yet they don't get god-level powers from that. That makes the Mangekyo using Uchihas seem cheap in my eyes. They get god-level powers for whining and crying, while others have to work super hard to reach the same level.
