Why do people think that Madara still has the Rinnegan?

First of all, Madara is my favorite character, so I'm not a Madara hater.
Also I'm not saying he necessarily doesn't have the Rinnegan, I'm saying that people are too quick to jump to conclusion saying he does have it.

As we all know the Rinnegan belonged originally to Madara, and he is the only one who could deactivate it.
Since Madara is basically in a weakened state, and he probably lost consciousness, there's a good chance his eyes deactivated as well and are back to base state.
Madara during his fight with the Kages, was clearly able to revert his rinnegan back to EMS.
Now since Madara no longer has Hashirama's cells (as far as we know), because his chest is back to normal, he shouldn't be able to activate his Rinnegan again.

I don't think DNA leaves your body when you die or passout

We don't know if he can deactivate it, Nagato was in a weakened state and didn't lose the rinnegan albeit he didn't know they were also EMS, and the sage has always been seen with rinnegan when in theory he should have normal looking eyes as well

Is there any valid reason to say he doesn't still have it?

The real question is, are you stupid enough to believe his eyes walked out of his sockets?

Again those were not Nagato's eyes. Just like Kakashi wasn't able to deactivate Obito's sharingan.

When Madara was edo tensei, he managed to revert them back to EMS to cast a genjutsu on Raikage.
Also we don't know if hagoromo could deactivate it or not, for all we know he has so much chakra that he doesn't need to.

More likely once it's unlocked, it's there for good, regardless of other power roll-backs.

He still has them, his eye's have been Rinnegans for decades now and I don't think they would be reverted back just like that.

Why? As far as we know, Madara only could access his rinnegan because the combination of Ashura and Indra, he no longer has this combination. And further more his eyes have a good chance of being deactivated now.

Again you don't provide actual explanations beyond "I think so". So what if he had them for decades? What does that prove?

Because Madara mastered the art of swallowing Hashirama's DNA

It's not his DNA. And again the source of his DNA was his Hashirama clone, it's gone now.
Dude, yes it is his dna.. You have to remember that yeah, ashrua's and indra's chakra mixed and brought out the sage's chakra... But what you need to understand is that the Uchiha and the senju are decendents, DECENDENTS of ashura and indra, who are brothers and are basically two halfs of the SAGE in chakra..... SAGE chakra > ASHURA & Indra chakra >>>>>> (over time) >> Uchiha & Senju chakra.....

The code is split to the dna.... The chakra CAN be fixed genetically, as you've seen with Madara, after survivng his fight and injecting hashi's flesh into himself.... OBVIOUSLY that caused something to happen even if it was over time, and the Rinnegan was born, before his death.

He can use izanagi to get hashi DNA back

First of all, if you decide to take real life science. Then let's say you get kidney from your brother, his DNA in his kidney won't mix in your DNA.
Second his rinnegan is achieved due to the Chakra combination as far as we know, and if he lost his Hashirama clone, he could very well have lost his Ashura chakra.
Maybe it took his body a while to manifest the chakra and activate it through the Hashirama DNA.

We don't know any of this. maybe Kaguya absorbed Hashi's face but that doesn't mean he has Hashi's DNA coursing through his veins.

Either way he's in no position to start fighting anyone let alone the strongest ninjas to ever exist combined.

That's what I said we can't know. I'm not saying he necessarily doesn't have the rinnegan. What I'm saying is that I don't think it's right to quickly assume that he still has the rinnegan.

First of all, you have to understand this is a work of fiction.
