Fanciful claims made about a historical person is not evidence that that historical person could not have existed.

If The Historical Jesus didn't have magical powers, he wasn't Jesus.
Right. That's why we make a distinction between the Historical Jesus and the mythological Jesus of Christianity
There is the historical Elvis who died on the toilet, and the mythological Elvis who is supposedly still alive
