Kazumasu TAKIGAWA and Toshiie MAEDA, later mentioned, are not appropriate for comparison with Nobumori since they produced adequate results (Toshiie is greatly different from Nobumori in position and authority), but it looks as if Nobumori could not damage the army of Hongan-ji Temple and let the situation drag on since he was stingy about the military costs, and as if he spent that money on pleasure.
なお、後述の滝川一益や前田利家、この2人は確かな結果を出しているため比較対象には適切ではなく（利家は信盛とは地位・権限や態度にも大きな違いがある）、信盛が軍費をケチった為に本願寺勢に打撃をあたえられず、数年間もの間持たせ、またその費用を道楽につぎ込んだようにも見える。
