I think that the insane fan logic that makes people think Kakashi is useless comes from the sheer caliber of the other people in the fight, and the fact that he, as of yet, hasn't contributed to it yet beyond saving Obito and Sakura from the lava. I think that Kakashi's main use, at this point, will honestly have to do with 'That Technique' (TM) that Hagoromo is discussing with the Edo Kage, or the actual sealing of Kaguya. Combat-wise, his thousand techniques may or may not be a factor. However, he has excellent chakra control and can definitely contribute to a seal, or to the breaking of the IT.

Sakura gaining the seal wasn't an asspull. Each of Team 7 got something that mimics their Sannin teacher.
Kakashi is plenty useful. He copied over a thousand techniques and we've only seen a small portion of those. He's just not useful in a fight with a woman who is as close to a deity this series has. What insane logic do fans (no you, just in general) use to come up with the fact that Kakashi is useless? Most of the Five Nations fear and respect him and that includes their respective Kage. But you can't expect the man to be any match for someone even Naruto and Sasuke, in their current states, are having problems with.
In this fight he pretty much is, since he's low on chakra he can pretty much only give them strategies but Sasuke said he is in charge of that when IT was launched.
At the moment, he's useless. But so would just about everyone else other than Sasuke and Naruto against Kaguya. It's not a knock on Kakashi, as he's proven himself to be very valuable throughout the entire series.
That is true. I feel bad for Sakura. Every time she gets to a new level, some opponent that outclasses her in every way shows up.
I think people starting hitting it on the head for Kakashi later on. He isn't useless, just in the scope of the characters and powers being thrown around right now, a lot of people would look weak. I will say I think Kakashi can come up with something crazy from the jutsu's that he has copied and the chakra reserves he has built up through the years to be able to use Sharingan. Now that he doesn't have Sharingan draining his chakra, he might be able to string together a lot more attacks if he gets his chakra levels back up. Naruto or Sakura can probably help with that.

lol I dont see this happening. Currently, he doesnt have the strength nor stamina to do so

I feel he is going to be responsible for a major punch at Kaguya and play a key role in her defeat, but to be the one who beats her is a bit too much.
