Something to keep in mind on the Hero to godhood bit is that they were all prophesy. They were intended to do what they did by the gods, it was - practically - their whole purpose for being. Tiber Septim did what he did without the forward planning of the Divine, albeit with their blessing, and this is part of what made him so great. He was a powerful man and could have done great good or great evil (granted, so could each Hero, but that would defeat the purpose of the canon and the prophesy . . . we have to take player-choice out of the equation for the arguement of lore).
