But CHIM was discribed to make one a god already by some, so when the connection of the heart was severed, wouldn't Vivec still keep a huge chunk of power?

I can see both Almalexia and Sotha Sil as mortals who gained godlike power from tapping into the heart, but wouldn't Vivec already be a god even without that? He had CHIM. Unless, of course, CHIM is just an excuse for alteration magic so powerful that it can push the world so hard that the world cannot push back in any way (like how you stretch a spring so much that it changes shape rather than spring back)

Also, wouldn't Tiber Septim himself practically become a god as well without performing an Emantiomorph with Zurin Arctus and Wulfharth?
