Its right based on the evidence. The only two Edo Tensei who were never at full power were Tobirama and Hashirama due to Orochimaru's inferior version of Edo Tensei. Kabuto brought back Madara at full power and then some, the manga goes on several times to say how much more powerful he was than he was in life.

Hashirama assumed that they were brought back the same way. Hashirama didn't even know about the Rinnegan's powers or the reason why the chakra rods were dangerous.

If he managed nOT to get stabbed at all, you'd be right. But since he got stabbed six times, and Madara only needed a single seal to paralyze him...
