He was both human and God. Is that not almost the whole point? I'm perplexed.

The problem seems to arise because of the pronoun "HE". Since no other humans are also gods, or from another angle, 'god' and 'human' are considered entities with different qualities, to use "he" has created a new entity - a god/human sharing of a body. So, to use the term 'human' for this fairly rare entity destroys the distinctiveness of both.
"THEY" were a god and a human. Much along the lines of Multiple Personality Disorder, the body is human, but there is more than one entity sharing it.
