Hokage is the supreme authority in the village and don't forget Fourth Hokage has died and Fifth Hokage hasn't been chosen so as someone who is in the highest position, he can make nominations and even pass authority to someone else. You are right when you said that doesn't usually work like that, but that's not a normal situation and the village's circumstances are different.

Grown-Up!

Do you mean Logic gates or circuits as in semi-conductor?

Konoha f4: Hiruzen, Homura, Koharu and Danzo!

Haha!

Well, I am a man and I generally don't care much about white lies. To be honest, I don't see any benefit in lies and hiding but you could also consider the fact that they haven't met for a long time and the fact that Kazutora is paranoid about the new world. As for what you said, I don't think I have anything to say but I don't find it wrong. As anyone else, including me would get hurt by lies but I do forgive some white lies (The ones I think as white lie, not what they think as). If they hide some serious matter, I would also be angry and hurt by it.

Not that much of chakra but enough to keep him stuck

My mistake, I didn't see it clearly when I looked for image.

He just had an idea that he confided and he didn't know if there were people who thought of this or didn't. Maybe they did but they didn't find it successful and Orochimaru did an experiment and found it difficult to do. I wrote the reason as per explained by Orochimaru and dropped the idea because it didn't seem feasible for anyone. Sharingan could be used and techniques like Tsukuyomi and Ininite Tsukuoyomi define the idea he had. It's just difficult and close to impossible for everyone could do it. Besides, if someone is a genius, it doesn't mean that he can think of everything. Two people who have same IQ levels can have different thoughts and there could be some ideas that one can think of while the other can't. So, you can't say that Tobirama or others didn't think or were too stupid but they didn't specialise or had expertise in the matter. Also, don't forget the History of villages where many people live and study together is so small compared to the history of the Ninja world and we don't know much so there is nothing that can be said. Same as how the items of making n'clear bo'b existed before they were discovered and you won't say that people at those times were stupid as they couldn't think of making n'clear b'mb

MC is a kid and Kurenai wouldn't think that he lied. As for his talent, even if he showed it later, she wouldn't really think that he had hidden it before. Some things can be learned once while some take time. That's all she would think and it's not like our world where something like talent and the time of learning is fixed. You can consider Uchiha as an example and compare how they are before the awakening of Sharingan and after the awakening of Sharingan. This means that Talent in Naruto world can not be generalised and it can change again anytime.

You can read the comment I made and answer back if you think badly of the event. They can't control every moment and events like these would soon happen and be a wake up call for everyone.
