Again if Obito didn't believe Itachi could kill him he would not have said so. I still fail to see how you'd argue that there's no time manipulation when there's no indication either way. Maybe Itachi made it easier to break out of, but there's no reason to think that he didn't use time manipulation. In fact, it seemed more likely that he was only using it to mess with him, as he didn't use it to severely torture. Itachi honestly looked like he was using Tsukuyomi full strength with a less severe torture in order to wear Sasuke down as the endgame and was just surprised when Sasuke broke out.
