Actually Yahweh and Allah are not the same entity; Yahweh is a Trinitarian deity, while Allah is a singular being. But about the question.

First of all, the RL example doesn't work. The Catholic would say that Allah doesn't exist. And he would be either right, or he would be wrong. It's not a subjective thing. God either exists or He doesn't. Same with Talos -- he's either a Divine, or he isn't. And canon seems to indicate that he is. However, is he overated? No. But is he overrated? Perhaps. I haven't actually been able to get a straight answer about his doctrines out of anyone, so my DB isn't particularly a follower of his (he prefers Alkosh and Herma-Mora, who's more like a mentor than a worshipped god anyway. So mostly Alkosh. And maybe Kynareth). However I would worship him just to annoy the Thalmor. Not that they would be in any position to be annoyed for long; it's hard to be irritated while getting fried by thousands of volts of electricity. Or lying on the ground with a sword through your heart, or getting burned to death by sun magicks from a bow that can make the sun kill people for some reason. I dunno.
