Because Jotaro doesn't know about Tusk, he won't know it's worth sacrificing his arm (because yes, Jotaro won't grasp the situation quickly enough to just lose a hand or fingers, lol). Diego stood a greater chance because he knew about Tusk, if he ever let The World touch Tusk, he would have lost. He dies of a case of missing vital organ with Act 3, and if he ever cuts off his arm, he loses from blood loss.

Also, because Johnny isn't an idiot himself, he will try to keep his distance with Jotaro, whose range is still not that great even with Star Platinum's time stop. He can move a couple of meters, maybe a dozen at most, but that's it.

We can go down an endless abyss of what ifs, but Jotaro is the probable loser of this match if they are face to face with a reasonable distance between the contestants That just means he'll run out of ammo even faster. Hey, remember that time Jotaro could super-jump? Yeah, there's not much stopping him from doing just that to avoid Tusk's wormholes.

Also, Johnny can only create tracking wormholes with ACT 2. ACT 2's nail-bullets, of course, only create wormholes if they're embedded in an object and create a 'bullethole', which they can't exactly do if Jotaro just catches the nails or deflects them to disrupt the rotation. With ACT 4, the nails aren't as life-threatening since he still has a few minutes before the Infinite Rotation disintegrates him, so he can easily amputate any limbs when they begin to rotate. Jotaro isn't dense, and if given the opportunity to deduce his enemy's power, can come up with numerous ways to overcome their advantages and exploit their weaknesses.

You're right, there's an endless abyss of what ifs. We don't know exactly what's going to happen or what the characters will do, but Johnny's numerous options are handicapped by, no pun intended, his weaknesses. If Jotaro is even given the chance to figure out Tusk, he's going to stay mobile and will rely heavily on his timestop to close the gap between him and Johnny. At that point, Johnny will be missing more shots than he can afford to, and he'll run out of nails which will inevitably prove to be his downfall. Johnny can kill Jotaro faster than Jotaro can kill Johnny, yes, but there's too many ways to counteract Tusk's abilities for Jotaro to not somehow discover one. Additionally, if we're allowing Jotaro to use his rifle bullets (like we're presumably allowing Johnny to ride Slow Dancer), there's really not much stopping him from incapacitating Johnny with a shot to the chest, shoulder, or hands.
