Yeah, I think that my logic for "base" won't fit for every character. All I know is it would make sense if Naruto's base was what he could do using only his own chakra/energy, not chakra/energy from anything else. But I do see your point on how that wouldn't apply to every character

If only one own chakra/energy needed then Kabuto is also does not have base.

If you ever played CRPG(or any other RPG for that matter) there Passive, Active and Sustained abilities and some requirements for them, in our case Sustained is: chakra modes, activation of dojutsu(except Rinnegan); passive is large chakra reserves, KKG, and so on; and active is: FRS, Susanoo, Amaterasu, ect. All sustained are not base and from passive and active one bese are justus that does not requre any sustained jutsus.

Example:

FRS(active) for Pain Naruto does require SM(sustained) so it's not base jutsu, while in Last Naruto does not need SM and FRS is base.

Amaterasu(active) require MS(sustained) to be activated so it's not base jutsu.

Shinra Tensei(active) while requre Rinnegan(passive) is still base cause Rinnegan is not sustained but passive.
