If this were real life, and it were realistic scenarios i would agree with you, but simply put it's a manga and naruto is the titular character, i can't really think of any instances where the titular character dies in a way that doesn't save all of humanity. So when people bring up the point of sasuke being smart and tactically superior to naruto it's a straw-man because obviously he's right if it were real life, but it just isn't.
