Remember, Naruto also gained all TB and Sasuke also gained some Hashi stuff, so both have more than one source (the one being the Sage) for their power-ups.

That makes sense in answer to Blaezej. Naruto probably just inherited the sage technique from Hagoromo and Sasuke already had the potential, but meeting Hagoromo fianlly enabled him to awaken it so it's permanently his, just like Madara. Once you awaken it you can use it at will. One thing though: When did Sasuke get Hashirama's DNA integrated into his body? I don't remember seeing that or hearing about that all...
