Hagoromo never had the Byakugan though, the base mode Byakugan design is just a normal Otsutsuki eye but the Byakugan powers were solely inherited by Hamura and not by the Sage.
Byakugan and RinneSharingan are two separate dojutsu that were both awakened after Kaguya ate the fruit, each son inherited the chakra genes for separate dojutsu. The Sage had her RinneSharingan genes while Hamura had her Byakugan genes.
And the powers of Kaguya's RinneSharingan were divided as her blood and chakra got more diluted, Hagoromo got a devolved state of her dojutsu in the shape of a Rinnegan while Indra got an ever further devolved state of her dojutsu in the shape of a Sharingan.
The Sharingan was a result of not having Hagoromo's full chakra, Indra had the RinneSharingan genes like the Sage but not the chakra to awaken the same level of dojutsu so as a result he inherited a more degraded version of Kaguya's eye in the form of a new KKG.
Sharingan and Rinnegan are two separate KKG and the Sage only had one. The anime is filler and not canon so Hagoromo having a Sharingan isn't fact but just wishful thinking until author confirms it.
Oooooo. I've learned some thing from you. But @bold Byakugan awakened after eating the fruit. I find that hard to believe since it was never stated in the manga that the fruit awakened the Byakugan, if the anime says it so, then will it be a retcon or a filler??
Another is Momoshiki having the Byakugan firsthand. I think the Byakugan is an innate ability to their kind. And Hagoromo and Hamura naturally inherited it. As for Hagoromo, he might have inherited the mutated Byakugan.
But how can I explain Momoshiki's rinnegan. ish.
