Again, you are considering her when she appeared against Naruto and Sasuke. That was the product of her will, Black Zetsu, fusing together with Madara, who had become the Ten-Tails' jinchuriki; setting the stage for a recreation of Kaguya. When she fought Hagoromo and Hamura, it was her. She merged with the Shinju and that yielded the Ten Tails. So yes, it was actually her that time.

And well, since that movie has a completely different technique and a completely different concept than this, it's not very fair to use it as a reference point here. Especially since, a statue doesn't have any life in it at all, no matter how much you try to argue it. The way I see it, Hagoromo claimed that he meticulously studied Kaguya's technique. Even if her chakra was ripped away, her connection to the world could allow her to acquire even more. He must've reasoned that the only way to stop her would be to seal her body away once her chakra was taken, which is what Six Paths Chibaku Tensei does, leaving her in a permanent "dead" state.

We could argue this back and forth until the crows come up, since it is dependent on our interpretations, but I was under the impression the way to get approved on the application was to at least come up with something plausible.
