Filler doesn't count man, considering sarutobi's moveset, I don't see him beating tobirama even in his prime. And that's the thing, most of the known generations in naruto weren't surpassed. If your rule doesn't even apply the majority of the time, then it's definitely not absolute. All I ever saw of that rule was just a prep talk to motivate everyone to get stronger. it wasn't only said in filler but also in databook. And he was also the professor of konoha for mastering all their jutsu...And which majority are you talking abt the 5 kages? Kaguya, madara, hagoromo? well they are less than 1 percentile of ninja world and most of them did get surpassed (especially the kages) only kaguya and (maybe) hagoromo weren't surpassed.

When I'm talking about the majority of the generations that weren't surpassed, I'm only referring to the known generations so of course they make up less than 1% of the ninja world. I can't talk about the rest because we have no information on them. the madara, hashirama, generation wasn't surpassed until naruto's generation, Kaguya's generation wasn't surpassed, hagoromo's generation wasn't surpassed, indra and ashura's generation wasn't surpassed either, only minato surpassed the sanins generation. Those make up the majority of generations we have significant info about in naruto. Also, what databook stated that the third surpassed the second?
