If he needed to capture Kakashi because Kakashi showed that he knew a bit about Akatsuki's movements, then the same applies to Jiraiya. Seems like you're forgetting that Itachi is on Konoha's side, he deduced that Kakashi got his share of intel of Akatsuki from Jiraiya. So why take away the source of info? (also don't forget that he didn't and couldn't engage Jiraiya) he even indirectly spill a piece of akatsuki's goal to the same Kakashi he wanted to take away, the fourth hokage's legacy he said to them, Kisame doesn't know what that is, but they did. Now that begs the question what was he really gonna do with Kakashi, cuz it doesn't make sense if Itachi leaks info to Kakashi then take him away to erase similar intel, clearly he had other plans.

Tsukuyomi doesn't take as much chakra? I thought that it was said somewhere that Itachi's limit was 3 MS techs. The only way it'd be 3 every time is if they were equal. But maybe I'm misremembering, so if that's not the case, my b. Tsukuyomi consumes more, cuz he kinda spammed amaterasu in his last battle and his Ms didn't deactivate. Could he have spammed Tsukuyomi similarly? nope.

But which one costs more chakra? Because Tsukuyomi could've ended that fight. Hell, based on most pro-Itachi arguments, Sharingan Genjutsu would end the fight there. But Itachi didn't do either. Tsukuyomi is arguable; maybe he didn't have the chakra. But he definitely had enough for Sharingan Genjutsu. Why not use that? Instead of using one of his most powerful offensive techniques... to escape and say he couldn't beat him. Honestly i got nothing here. But i'll just stick to my itachi didn't wanna take down a potential future hokage' statement. [also he never said he could'nt beat jiraiya when escaping]
