On the former point, just by being Lorkhan's Nordic "aspect", Shor is Lorkhan. Shor is also "missing" from his realm, if you recall. Just the same as Lorkhan is missing, only to have the 3 of the Talos Oversoul mantle ("usurp") his position. 'Do you even have proof of the Dragonborn being an avatar of Talos?

The Greybeards name the Dovahkiin Ysmir, a name/title that throughout the entirety of history has only been given to Shezarrines, most notably the ones connected to Wulfharth and by extension Talos. The name Ysmir alone is listed as one of Lorkhan's avatars in

The Greybeards name you Stormcrown which in Elhnofex is spelt "TALOS", that is a pretty straight forward connection right there.

You are able to comprehend the Dragon Break at the Throat of the World, something that Shezarrines are known to be able to do.

Just about every Dragonborn who could adeptly use the Thu'um were Shezarrines (yes Reman and Miraak can both be connected to Lorkhan).

Shor is Lorkhan, but they are seperate entities. Talos mantling Lorkhan would not mean he mantled Shor, Shor is still Shor.

What does Shor being missing have to do with anything? All the Hero's of Sovngarde speak of Shor not Talos. The reason why Shor is gone is not really explained, some people like to think that this is more proof the Dovahkiin is a Shezarrine (implying the Dovahkiin is Shor), however this is kind of contradicted by the Five Songs which have Shor working along side Wulfharth.
