BUT, what DOESN'T make sense is that the Otsutsuki are actually moon people and that pretty much means the Sage, Senju/Uzumaki and Uchiha could only be so powerful because they're distantly alien. The power comes from the Divine Tree's fruit, and the Otsutsuki didn't come from the moon. They came from some other world. Hamura took leadership of the clan and settled on the moon after Kaguya was sealed.

It's really not that odd, considering that Kishimoto drew inspiration from a Japanese folktale that's one of the earliest known examples of science fiction in the world.
