When Naruto and Sasuke sealed Kaguya with SP-CT, she transformed into Ten-Tails, then its chakra, the tailed beasts, left it, and only the Statue remained to be sealed. If we go by the same logic with Hagoromo and Hamura, the chakra must've been separated from the husk as well, the only thing, the beasts were yet to be shaped from this chakra. Oh yeah I forgot about that. This makes sense. It could have happened that way. Now the only problem left is which version of events to accept.

I think the version by Madara, Obito and Kurama is more likely because it seemed like Hagoromo survived the extraction of the bijuu chakra for a period of time after the nine Bijuu were created. Like what Squinty97 mentioned above.

The Gedo in his body allowing him to survive that extraction seems the most logical explanation imo. Unless he survived because he's an Otsutsuki or something like that.
