then lets call it Redundant.

focusing on additive combat generally breeds negative side effects what i mean is if you already have a technique that is simple enough IE the gentle fist allows the byakugan user to drill chakra into an enemy and shut off, slow down or even destroy the flow of chakra, and then you make said simple technique complex it simply leads to a wasting of potential

the most logical thing for boruto to do, if he ever gains the byakugan is to focus solely on chakra control and timing. and the development of his gentle fist. focusing on adding pointless elements to an already devastating martial arts technique would only make it needlessly complex

now unless boruto really wants to create some gentle fist exploding palm where a single strike with some lightning release causes his opponent to explode from the inside out than by all means he should do it

but in reality the only benefit that would serve is scaring the shit out of anyone who sees it. it would be as simple to simply focus on mastering a timeless martial arts that has been passed down in the hyuga for the better part of a thousand years
