It's my belief that the Rinnegan only truly has the basic abilities as Nagato originally showed (Insight into any jutsu and any nature transformation).

Everything else is learned, or a specialized form of Six Paths power. e.g. control over gravity is shared by all Six Paths users (Both senjutsu and rinnegan users), absorbing of jutsu too (TSB's or Preta Path). Interacting with the soul similarly seems a generic Six Paths power.

Essentially with Rinnegan nothing stands in your way to create whatever jutsu you want or need, specializing your Six Paths powers to achieve these goals.

So what you are saying is that you believe that If Naruto wanted to he use every one of the six paths themselves? i personally agree it was always my theory that the six paths are actually the source of those abilities and that he Rinnegan simply grants the user six paths chakra and as such the ability to use the techniques. the only thing that the Rinnegan doesn't instantly grant is the Truth Seeking balls which require the user to also have senjutsu
