More practically, both have a hell of a lot more to lose now. Naruto has responsibilities, he can't just nuke a forest. Sasuke has a kid, but also knows that his freedom is based on a promise and good behavior. If he destroyed a forest with his PS just to catch Shin, he would be at serious risk of having his freedom revoked in a very permanent way.
