Reasons why Naruto can't use that many jutsus but just Rasengan?

It is seen in the manga that Naruto is constantly spamming Rasengan and its variants : Rasenshuriken, oodama, Lava style, etc etc. And I was wondering why. Then I came up with some reasons. Though I know that many of you will see it as obvious, but still, here are the reasons :

1. Naruto is Idiot by birth : he is weak in the Memory part in brain and is hence unable to remember various handseals to perform various jutsus.

2. Naruto's chakra was initially effected by Kyuubi's chakra and created instability in his chakra flow which was difficult for him to handle as a child in order to do complex jutsus. Affected by that, he started doing very simple jutsus and that too after too much practice.
Now since he had enough chakra and the urge to be a great ninja. He practised hard to learn Rasengan and not to say with a great effort.

3. We have seen other jinchurikis use different jutsus like Utakata, SonGoku's jin,Bee : Sealing, to be using jutsus of their Tailed beasts. Now, that is possible if
(a)one has spent enough time to control the beast and is somehow succesful to an extent as little that be
(b)Those jins were able to perform jutsus because their beasts had that area of specialization. Maybe Kyuubi is only sensory type and lacks other "Kekkei Genkai jutsu" :p . Thats why Naruto, even when was able to control the Kyuubi, didn't show other jutsus apart from sensory skills.( It's history that one Kyuubi's jin was sensory).

4. Naruto is Ashura's reincarnation. That sums it up all.

Now I am not saying that Naruto is weak, he has got his own style of doing things. But these are some plausible reasons for him using Rasengan all the times.

1. naruto show 5 TB jutsu
2. minato not used many handseals too
3. naruto has 10 jutsu outside rasengan/variations
He's an idiot but his idiocy made him conquered many obstacles throughout his life.

1. Naruto still remembers the hand seals for rinne tensei and summoning jutsu. This means he has no trouble remembering hand seals

2. Naruto's chakra control is great now. He can even mould his chakra to suit a specific person. Kyuubi said he was even better than minato at it. And rasengan is by no means a simple jutsu

4. There is nothing to suggest that ashura didn't learn many jutsu. Hahsirama who is also ashura's reincarnation has knowledge of alot of jutsu. Being ashura's reincarnation has nothing to do with naruto's lack of jutsu variety.

Kishi wants the main character to remain simple that is why naruto only uses rasengan variants and rasenshuriken variants

Rasengan is the Ultimate Jutsu.
Manga fax, it stomps on any jutsu seen so far.

Read it and weep. Naruto is one of the more varied ninja there is. Did you learn nothing from Jiraiya-sensei? He slaughters this thread:

1. Remembering two jutsus at this age is not that great thing to achieve. And indeed, his chakra conrol is best.
What I am saying is that Naruto has habituated himself to no different jutsu because of the stated reasons which prevailed only in the past. And since that past was for a long time, it has become his style and now he doesn't even care for other techniques.

I am a naruto fan, and i like your reasons! But naruto is actually smart when it comes
To fighting, he use usually two jutsus with multiple variations and combinations.
In that way he will not have to think about jutsu seals and BS and focus on what matters,
Figuring out how to beat your opponent, and controlling your mind in close combat

Sasuke on the other hand, he is more a background guy who cast jutsu rather than close combat
Still he can fight close too (dont wanna piss his fanbase off) and is more a tactics and caster guy.

Madara is basically a combination of those two

I startet out with just a little bit, but then my brain got creative...

Chidori is a cheap knock-off, Rasengan has sliced Madara in half multiple times.And it's sealed Limbo Madara.
