Why wasn't gates mandatory for all Konoha shinobi?

If a genin could open atleast 5 gates I don't see why minimum 3 gates wouldn't be mandatory for ALL konoha ninja to learn.

Thoughts?

Because it destroys you chakra network

something not kin for people with special KKG or Clan preservation

plus either they can learn Gates or focus more on their Clan KKG

up until 3 gates no permanent damage is caused.

Besides, if you never use it you will be fine.

I could be wrong but didn't Guy say it was hard to learn or something. Maybe only a few can. Neji could open up to the 3rd couldn't he?

I'm guessing it's a matter of difficulty learning and training to open the gates.

I agree. the Gates are OP, and I wonder if a Hyuga can learn it.

a combo of a Jutsu that can't be touched (Ura Renge) and the ability to finish your enemy with a mere touch (Jyuken). would be unstoppable.

Goken + Jyuken FTW

I thought when it was being intro'd Guy said Neji could open a gate or two but that may have been an anime scene.

Wasn't it like a forbidden jutsu? Kakashi said it was horribly dangerous and scolded Guy for teaching Lee that.

Not everyone can use it... Needs grueling training to be able to do that.

Waste of Chakra that could be used in Nin or Gen Jutsu...puts strain on the body and has instances of being defenseless.

Because it's the taijutsu equivalent of Sage Mode, not anyone can learn it and those that can are still under the threat of their body collapsing.

Only Hyuga and top tier taijutsu fighters are capable of using it casually the same way a top tier Senju would use Sage Mode.
