Well, the immediate thread was still Obito and Ten-Tails, especially since the latter (not Madara) was the main key to cast the IT. Madara and Hashirama cancelled each other out by engaging in the battle, so it was better to remain that way. Plus, just to remind, if Minato sacrificed himself to bring out Madara, there would be nobody to use FTG in order to save the Alliance from Obito's four TBB within the barrier.
