Naruto does say that BUT immediately afterwards he says that he doesnt really know for sure.

And then the databook comes out and says that TSB are Ninjutsu, not Senjutsu.

1) It would matter if he said he didn't know for sure, because Tobirama and Obito say the same thing, and the attack works, meaning he's right.

2) He doesn't even say what you said. Naruto says "I can't explain it well", because he's notably bad at explaining the mechanics of jutsu in the series. But he clearly says that it's the collision of 2 natural energy sources that prevents the annihilation effect of the TSBs.

3) I've already addressed the databook. It's most likely an oversight (like Danzo not being listed as a summoner), because it says you need the power of the Six Paths to use TSBs, which includes natural energy.

So the neutralization of ninjutsu is also senjutsu?

The neutralization of ninjutsu is caused by Yin-Yang style specifically (Obito says this). But the TSBs are partly compose of Natural energy.
