This chapter was such a mess no idea what was going on...

this is basically the gist of it, but just to add to the confusion, the uchiha who used izanagi would lose their sharingan no matter what, so why the need for izanami to teach them a lesson? it's not like they could use the technique again after the second use, which by logical standards should have come in the same fight as the first use (just look how many danzo had to use in one fight) or after losing one eye, they would have recognized that the second use was a last resort. and logically, most users of izanagi should be relatively inexperienced at it due to the sacrifice required to use it they couldn't have trained, so it shouldn't last as long as tobi's can.
the explanation for multiple uses would be that past izanagi users would have stolen sharingan from other uchiha to replace the ones that went dark, but how many uchiha were there after all? it doesn't add up. it doesn't make sense for them all to be slaughtering themselves and stealing others' eyes on such a grand scale. the clan would have dwindled away like the senju did only the senju still haven't had a legitimate reason for dwindling away and the uchiha seemed like a pretty large clan at the time of the massacre...

well at that point, itachi was still trying his original plan of having sasuke think he killed him and took his revenge on his evil older brother. itachi using izanami then would not have fit into that plan and it would have taught sasuke a technique that perhaps itachi didnt want anyone else to find out about ever. of course he just taught it to sasuke, but he's also totally changed his mind about how to deal with sasuke at this point in time.
