Why isn't naruto getting back up before the interval finishes?
Because he is not tanking it as easily as ur stating it out to be,actually, naruto even tanking an attack this powerful from point blank is pure speculation, let alone get there within 2-5 seconds (nagatos interval is likely to be shorter than devas)

seeing how all the marked kunais will be blown away as well, means that FTG will also be out of the question, and naruto wont be attacking him, before the CD is finished
Actually, why is naruto not just sensing and bracing himself with SM clones?
Because naruto sensing or percieving ST is nothing but fanfic,

and him prepping clones is nothing but a one time thing, nor is it a sufficient defense against a powerful ST,
The gama toads were oneshotted because they are giants against a gravity attack. The bigger you are the harder you fall, proven by gamabunta

Not only that, but the 'boss-sized shinra tensei' doesn't mean anything since gravity affects all objects equally regardless of mass. CST could kill anyone protected by katsuya, tsunade survived it despite having almost no chakra, deva was sent across konoha by his own attack yet is hardly even damaged.
Umm, regardless of the effects of gravity,
the gama toads were sent flying back by the boss sized ST,
and more force is required to do that to heavier objects,
naruto would be sent even further away, and whether his mass is high or not, the impact on the ground is breaking his bones,
his SM durability isnt high enough to allow him to just get up with no damage (which is what ur implying)
2 or 3 boss sized ST (which nagato has more than enough luxury to use) would take care of naruto
katsuyu surviving CST is nothing but stupidity when pein used CST kilometres away from them,
the further you are, the lower the affect of the force, since deva is the epicentre of ST
naruto getting hit from point blank means that hes eradicated, just how the toads were, unless you think that fodders from konoha are more durable then the gama toads
had deva used CST from point blank, then none of the konoha residents wouldve survived, since the effect of the force wouldve been much much higher, and the impact on the ground from a force that powerful wouldve killed them all, bar possibly tsunade
