Like you said it works for the story, but it doesn't hold up too well beyond that.

I imagine we'll see how this all works with Madara sooner or later, though.
well, we have seen this. madara used EMS and rinnegan so far as an ET zombie. he used susano'o while in EMS and then used meteor tech while in rinnegan which implies that each eye types techs cant be used when the other is active but it also implies that a rinnegan user should be able to revert back to MS. so either nagato didnt know how to revert back to MS or couldnt and no matter what it is probably a retcon =)
