Fair enough, though to be accurate from my PoV: Oro could had simply regenerated back to health I figured...Kimimaro had a disease that was slowly killing him and Sasuke was a much better body in his opinion, both last of their clans, both with unique and elite abilities. Take the body of a young and healthy boy with no disease and a dojutsu long lost, or the body of a dying boy with a long lost KKG as well, Sharingan appealed to him more because of the thought of copying and learning every jutsu in the world. Kimimaro's KKG wouldn't suit Orochimaru as nasty as he already is, it would look weird.
I woulda just made clones of kimi, like Madara did with Hashi, and eventually I would have his powers along with Sasukes body.

His eyes; along with Kimmys body* right?
If he had a choice he would have gone with kimi over sausage. It would have been op
Orochimaru is interested in learing every jutsus by himself. He wanted to learn every jutsus by having Sasuke's body and his Sharingan. Sharingan give you an ability to copy every jutsus excpet KKG. Meanwhile Kimimaro had strange disease inside him and was dying. why would Orochimaru wants dying body?
