Is it childish, Tango? He was very aware of the circum-stances, as well as the historical milieu. I think you have an issue with scholarship in general if it is not your own, and so far, I cannot say that you have provided anything overwhelmingly persuasive here. What you offer is merely your own interpretation of things which many other scholars seem in general to agree upon, and while I think that can be a sign of a breakthrough, I also know it is just as often just the sound of thin ice. Why don't you send your stuff to Boston, or Cincinnati, and see what their Egyptology departments make of it? Better yet, look into publishing it in a real, peer-reviewed journal, like ARCE or JEA?
By the way, your reference to Achilles is inaccurate. He was entirely mortal. Better to have used Herakles, whose mortal flesh had to be burnt off in order for him to become fully a god.
