While parts of your theory might be right, I don't think Alduin was gifted. Remember, those Dragons we saw are only mere refugees from Akavir. To uncover the mysteries behind their race, we'd have to go there. But it's most likely never going to happen, even in the TES:O.

About the origins of Dragonborn. I am looking forward to the TESV:Dragonborn for some answers. The first Dragonborn must have lived there about the time Ysgramor arrived, or even earlier. This begs the question, is the first Dragonborn Atmoran.
