i have a proof of the difference between dragonborn and dragonblooded:

in skyrim, you play as the last dragonborn, according to the prophecy of the dragonborn. if you had sons, they would not be dragonborn since that would go against the prophecy wich was predicted by the elder scrolls. thus proving the difference between dragonborn and dragonblooded. if you have doubts about the prophecy of the dragonborn, read the book of the dragonborn in-game or listen to miraak before fighting him, he will say:

-And so the First Dragonborn meets the Last Dragonborn at the summit of Apocrypha.No doubt just as Hermaeus Mora intended.

Miraak most probably learnt about the prophecy from heamaeus mora himself, since it was predicted while miraak was in apocrypha. Hermaeus Mora being the daedric prince of fate, he probably confirmed the truth of the prophecy to miraak, wich means the player in skyrim IS the last dragonborn.
