I don't think any variation of "Naruto is badly written" qualifies as an unpopular opinion anymore 
Anyway, I think the manga should have had the whole alien thing hinted at early on, giving it overall an otherwordly subplot/leitmotif instead of being so down-to-earth for most part. This way it could have had another layer of creepiness. As a bonus, the Otsutsuki could have been less humanoid and with completely alien minds.
