I doubt Minato was a bad teacher, I highly doubt that. What I do think however, is that may Minato had a reasoning for not teaching them the technique on a scale to where they could use it alone. Maybe he died to fast? Maybe they didn't want to? I myself can't just tell you what Kishi had in mind, but maybe I could say they were training in different fields, or something? Again, can't go against Kishi's intended goal. Possibly they couldn't understand the scroll to its exact mechanics, so Minato dumbed it down to where they were able to perform the technique together. Just because they were skilled doesn't mean they were exactly...smart. As for skill, yes, that is what I meant, but throw away the Madara portion which people don't know. The skills that allowed him to learn it from the scroll is his intellect. I have written it yet, but what my plan is to have Ishihara be book smart but street dumb. (It's a saying I'm sure you guys understand)
