Agreed, but this thread was meant to be silly, afterall.

Unlike the other genjutsus that do specific tasks, the world of Tsukiyomi is completely controlled by the user's will...so the target is basically bind there. Though genjutsus generally can be broken by pain, Kakashi
was already in some pain after the kage buushin explosion...shouldn't he be immune from it if such were the case? Also, Tsukiyomi happens so quickly in real time that there really isn't much time to react once hit.

Mental breakdowns
can cause death; one's spirit and mind can strongly impact the body. If your mind believes your body is dead...you'll be in trouble.

I like your reasoning for the most part, but hopefully mine offers a different angle for consideration. ^_^
