Hmm overall you seem to bring mere facts that most know, and that are only discussed by none-knowing idiotis that use "anime filler" evidence (yeah I meet those a lot...), anyway I must point out the thing about Sasuke having Tsukuyomi.
Now I don't know, where exactly you have your translation from, and whether it is more valid than others, but I have seen some that suggest you only need either amaterasu or tsukuyomi to awaken Susanoo, but that Itachi was so skilled that he mastered both, but it depends on how you interpret it.
Also there is a certain genjutsu called "sharingan genjutsu" (if I recall correctly) in the 3rd databook. This genjutsu is labelled to be usable by both itachi and sasuke, and it is described exactly, how the effects of the genjutsu sasuke used on Killer Bee was.
However, Tsukuyomi is also in the databook, but it is only said to be usable by Itachi. Another thing is, Tsukuyomi is a combination of genjutsu and ninjutsu. Some guy once made a thread about Tsukuyomi being a space time jutsu, I honestly don't think he used this as evidence, but it had probably helped his case very much..
Nonetheless, Tsukuyomi doesn't just mean you are an expert of genjutsu. Being an expert of genjutsu means that you are extremely skilled at keeping your opponent from escaping your genjutsu. So given that Sasuke just isn't skilled at it, it explains why Danzo easily escaped Sasukes genjutsu, and we will just have to believe that the one time he used tsukuyomi, was back then, and that he just called it something else, cause it wasn't powerful enough, or he didn't understand how to compile a ninjutsu inside a genjutsu.
But as I said with my initial case, I am not sure I will deem this discussion over, as you do. Since there are several translations of the databooks (especially the 3rd one), and you can easily find some, where you can interpret it differently.
And for the case regarding Hiruzen, Kishi has said in an interview that he was the strongest along with Minato (of all hokages).
Yeah. I agree, it's a touchy subject that will probably never be settled, but I just like to think that Itachi=Genjutsu, Sasuke=Amaterasu, and Madara=Susano'o, and the fact that Itachi was introduced first means his "base" tsukuyomi wasn't named. Think about if Sasuke's MS was introduced first, we might say that the three he has are Blaze Release, Susano'o and whatever they may have named the base form of Tsukuyomi. Just my opinion.
