it was a hand-me-down story told by obito. surely he didn't have all the facts and it's no surprise that indeed he didn't. also, naruto's natural endurance pales in comparison to hashirama's life-giving powers

- But then later in the manga (when kyuubi bonds with the bijuu), the foreshadowing suggests strongly that Naruto is the reincarnation of the Sage himself. The bijuu did not say Naruto reminds them of the Sage's sons. They say he reminded them of the sage himself. So it seems a *little* bit random how the son's are the important issue now.

but the sage was reminded of himself in ashura (which is why he chose him as his successor), therefore reminding someone of the sage or ashura is essentially the same thing
