Naruto achieved what he did through his ridiculous reserves as a Jinchuriki (many shadowclones, summoning, Rasengan). Boruto did it without. Boruto's use Kage Bushin is of a much higher quality than Naruto (who just spams it with little thought), and it's not a base for any of his abilities whereas for Naruto it's pretty much a prerequisite. Take Kurama away and Naruto's not much of a ninja.
