I haven't gone back and argued your points because I find them so fundamentally wrong that it seems useless. But lemme try to humour you.

You claim that the image on the page isn't enough to show that the eyes are the indicators of SPSM. And that a larger image shows him with his cloak on the page. True, the larger image shows his cloak. But the fact is, on the page describing SPSM, both images are present. So, what can we conclude? That both images are depicting SPSM. So what do we conclude from that? They have something in common that we can identify. The thing in common that we can identify is that Naruto has cross-slits with no pigmentation in both pictures. If it were because of Kurama giving him the Sage chakra, he would have made note of it. Like he made note of Son Goku giving him chakra. But he didn't. I'm not proving myself wrong, I'm using the images provided. Both images are used to depict SPSM. So what do they have in common? It's not hard to figure it out.

You keep saying the picture is showing his awakened Juubi power. Despite it not being stated on the page that SPSM used Bijuu chakra at all.

I'm not blatantly misconstruing anything. I'm using the context of the image being used on the SPSM page. If it's being used on the SPSM page, it's obviously being used to describe SPSM in some way. In this case, the caption said that the kick was only accomplished by a huge chakra, greater than Kurama mode. So it's describing that SPSM gives him greater chakra than Kurama mode.

I'm not spinning a narrative. I'm looking at the picture and the caption, and where it's placed. It's on the SPSM page. So what must the picture and caption be relevant to? Susanoo?

He doesn't use the 9 Bijuu to power his chakra cloak anymore, but you've yet to convince me that he needs the 9 Bijuu to enter SPSM.

It's never been stated that Kurama gathering Nature Energy causes lack of pigmentation. It's never been hinted at. You know what we do know? Kurama chakra + Sage Mode = Cross slit eyes WITH pigmentation. Naruto showed that twice. One in front of Nagato. The other time against Juubito. Why would there be a lack of pigmentation if the ingredients to the mode remained the same?

You see, it's not that I don't have arguments to your claims. It's that I just don't understand how you reach so far for your conclusions and then accuse everyone else of reaching further than you. So I usually leave it alone and only argue one or two key points that I don't wanna let slide. But my silence is not conceding the point. My silence is just me not feeling like putting in the effort to type such long paragraphs for someone who believes their own interpretations can only be objectively right.
