His angel and his Son are repeatedly called by the same titles.... their functions are overlapping.... they are imputed with the same actions.....
This is covered in the links I sent you.
Shared titles do not make two beings the same being. Case in point; Cyrus and Yeshua both being YHWH's "maschiach".
"This is spoken of mortal men who will eventually die (vs.7)"
To quote Bryan Huie:
In this psalm, we see God take His place as the leader of the divine council. The psalmist records that, during this meeting of the council, God criticizes the "gods" ('elohim) for their unfairness and wickedness in carrying out the responsibilities He has assigned to them. Asaph tells us that the sin and rebellion of the 'elohim have shaken the foundations of the earth. He records God's warning to these divine spirit entities, that their fate for corruption and disobedience will be to "die like men" (Heb. 'adam). Since clearly all men will "die like men," attempting to apply this Scripture to human rulers, as some scholars do, is illogical. Asaph ends the psalm by exhorting God to judge the earth and its divine rulers, because all nations truly belong to Him and not to them.
Angels cannot die.
And Yahshua answering said unto them, The sons of this age marry, and are given in marriage, but those who are accounted worthy to attain to that age and to the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage, for they cannot die any more, because they are equal to the angels; and are sons of Yahweh, being sons of the resurrection." (Luke 20:34-36).
"You are concluding by assumption that the light of Genesis 1:3 was the Son being created."
Actually I gave you the conclusion
reached through the Bible verses and in-depth studies I referenced and directed you to. Did you read any of these verses or studies yet? If you want to know how this conclusion was reached
see the articles.
For your convenience here they are again:
Revelation 3:14, Colossians 1:15, Proverbs 8:24-26.

Scripture literally calls Yeshua the beginning of God's creation. I think this refers to the beginning of living beings, not objects.
But he could probably have been created prior to day 1.
Revelation 3:14 and Colossians 1:15 are referring to Yeshua being the beginning and firstborn of YHWH's new creation, not the old creation.
Proverbs 8:24-26 -
One need only read verses 1-12 to realize that a pre-existant Son is not speaking in verses 24-26. The Scriptures declare the speaker to be wisdom. The glorious wisdom Yahweh possessed before He created all things is personified in these verses. Notice, also, that wisdom is personified as a female, not a male. Proverbs 8:1 reads, "Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?" And Proverbs 9:1 says, "Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars." If Yeshua pre-existed as the epitomy of wisdom, why does Revelation 5:12 say he is worthy to receive wisdom? Surely an all-wise pre-existant being has no need of further wisdom.
1 Corinthians 1:30 says, "But of him are ye in Messiah Yeshua, who of [Yahweh] is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:" This verse declares that Yeshua was "made unto us wisdom." It does not say he existed as wisdom in the past. Psalm 104:24 says, "O Yahweh, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches." Yahweh used His great wisdom in the creation of all things. It was like a workman at His side.
The word "all" is frequently used in a non-literal way. If all always means all, then scripture doesn't make sense. Furthermore Yeshus had a part in designing and altering everything. Whatever God created, Yeshua would decorate and modify in various ways.
John 1:3 is erroneously applied to the Son to prove he created every single thing.
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
While "all" may not be literal, the bolded phrase is clear. Water was made, but not by the Son if the Son was not created until light was made. The fact is, the logos of John 1 was not a living being, but the Father's spoken words and thoughts. The logos was a thing, not a living being. That is why translations that preceded the KJV used "it" instead of "him" in their translations. One example is Tyndale's translation;
"All things were made by it, and without it, was made nothing that was made. In it was life, and the life was the light of men."
Several other major translations do the same such as the "Great Bible", "Thomas Matthew Bible" and the "Geneva Bible".
