I like your reasoning, yet I have to push back on a few points. Orange mask Obito, confronted by Snake Kabuto and reanimated Akatsuki showed no visible sign of fear or danger. That is, edo Nagato and Itachi included and still didn't react. Only reacting when edo Madara was shown. Which implies that Obito at that time knew he couldn't beat Madara, yet was seemingly confident he could take the rest.

Another point as mentioned by a previous user is wood release not just chakra. It clearly is special as referenced by it reacting to Naruto's yang kurama chakra, the fact that Madara didn't absorb it with the preta path, the fact that it creates living trees and the fact that it doesn't disappear.
