(I am splitting this up, or else it would be too long.) Talos and ALMSIVI are not equals to beings like the Underking or Tiber Septim.

They are true gods, they don't live in the same level of existence as the Shezarrine Oversouls. This is why they don't do this.

Talos Stormcrown and Wulfharth would have been able to meet. That hasn't been confirmed. Also the Underking couldn't have interacted with Wulfarth or Zurin because they didn't exist anymore after the Underking Oversoul was created. He has shown similar characteristics to Talos, who is basically Lorkhan. Not really. Talos has mantled Lorkhan but the two are pretty different. Talos is the God of War and Governance. He is the God Hero of Mankind. Lorkhan is considered a hero by the Nords because of Shor but other than that the two are very different.

Just checked the entire TIL archive on Alessia, not one source says this^, it is fanon. Its not fanon. When they introduced Miraak, retconning Alessia as the First Dragonborn, Bethesda explained that despite Alessia being considered a Dragonborn she was not the same kind of Dragonborn as others like the LD, Talos and Miraak. Look at [Dragonborn (Lore)#Trivia|this]. It is however a MK statement, so take it with a grain of salt.

This one is obvious, you need only look at the Dovahkiin. He/she would have never been discovered if he/she hadn't killed a dragon, take note of the fact that the Dovahkiin was unable to shout until a dragon soul was absorbed. Talos Stormcrown on the other hand was part Wulfharth who already knew the Thu'um. They could have learned the thu'um from the Greybeards. They wouldn't even have to train for years to learn since if they were true dragonborns they could have learned the thu'um from the Greybeards super easily. By absorbing the Greybeards's knowledge on the words of power like the LD did in High Hrothgar.

[Talos], Because he used the Thu'um, the Greybeards saw this and called him to their mountain. The same thing happened to the Dovahkiin. I know, but the other Septims are descendants of Tiber/Talos. They were dragonblooded but if they were true dragonborns the couldn't learned the thu'um or been called to the Greybeards. It didn't have to be all the Septims but for non of them to be called there? For none of them to learn the thu'um? That is highly unlikely.
