it has been confirmed that naruto,sasuke and sakura all surpassed their Sannin teacher, this here answers the question as kakashi never once surpassed any of the Sannin

also as for him having a better knowledge base than her thats actually a non factor because the human brain can not processes information fast enough for a person to use even a fraction of the thousands of techniques he has copied. the more information the brain has to processes the slower the reaction time. so realistically he would have only a dozen or 2 techniques that he would be able to quickly go through

also on a side note

contrary to popular belief, Ninja did not actually fight, Ninjutsu/Ninjitsu is an invention of modern times. no real life Ninja Scroll makes any mention of hand to hand combat. real life ninja were spies and solely spies. they spent most of their days pretending to be, actors,teachers, gardeners, musicians etc etc, no scroll makes mention of assassination etc etc. while the vast majority were former samurai they didn't have anything special about themselves so while they could fight, they rarely ever did
