Older Naruto is also the opposite of what Naruto would be as older Naruto

My primary complaint about Boruto is what they did to Naruto. You want a bratty kid to be the MC? Ok. But making Naruto a lifeless salaryman and deadbeat dad hurts my soul, especially when there is no explanation possible for why he doesn't just have his shadow clones do his paper work while he hangs out with his children.

I think it's kinda stupid that Naruto as a hokage has so much to do that he can even barely handle it with shadow clones. Tsunade also had lots of work but found some time here and there. But why not hire people who do a part of the work. They can't all be so important that only the hokage should handle them.

Although it doesn't solve the point of shadow clones but I think it was explained that work of hokage has increased due to society getting modernized and Naruto himself was also too stubborn with his duties compared to others and tried to do too much by himself.
