Have you ever read the in game book called "Talos Mistake" where the author presents all of the reasons why Talos is not a god? That book clearly written as a biased text, where the author takes Thalmor's side of the Argument. He agrees that Talos was the great hero of emensed ability, but that alone doesn't make him a god, as no man can rise to godhood. I don't know if you are refering to my comment but I hope you realize that that excerpt comes from one of Barenziah's biography's "The Real Barenziah".

What sort of bias (especially in a biography) would feel like they need to change how Tiber Septim looks? It's not like the book is trying to slander him by calling him ugly or something, and it is a much more believable description than "a Nord with immense strength", which is most likely based off some Cult of Personality.
