You're ignoring half of my post. Especially the first part.
Allow me to repeat it. Sasori claims it took effort to kill the 3rd Kazekage.

Explanation on how Iron Sand works and proving how your theory about puppet's abilities being inferior to actual individuals' abilities is wrong.

That's not all. They are more deadly than when they actually lived because they are basically immortal. They also have upgrades.

- "took down a country" - Only country he took down was apparently Sand a.k.a the Kazekage which sparked the last war.
I'm not assuming things. You're assuming he sneaked up on the Kazekage and captured him without anyone knowing when he clearly says it took an effort to kill the Kazekage not to mention a technique that he says took down a country. If we go with what you're saying, the 3rd Kazekage is being made out to be a big fat joke. Please show me where it says he sneaked up on the Kazekage and ambushed him without a fight. Those panels right there explains that the Kazekage did put up some sort of struggle if not a huge battle.
Gaara may have nullified the Gold Dust just because he lifted the sand on top of Gold Dust doesn't mean he can do it instantly. Gold Dust instantly took down the tsunami where as Gaara's sand took time to rise over the Gold Dust. The word "already" in the latest manga is the keyword. We still haven't seen enough of Gold Dust so it's hard to "assume" how powerful it is but we know that it was clearly used to take down the Shukaku. Iron Sand can change its property to adapt to the battle. I mentioned that the Iron Sand was created to imitate the Shukaku's sand. It is not in the same league as the Gold Dust.
Btw I'll quote why I called bullshit just so you know that you disagreeing with me has nothing to do with it.
