Human beings make the manifested gods

and so did they about the path to realization. Therefore there cannot be a single way.

Elephant that eats only vegetarian food has much more strength than the tiger, which always eat non-veg food

That depends on the point of attack. If a tiger climbs from behind and hits the elephant on the head, then the tables are turned.

The Pandavas are five parts of Indhiran. The fame, strength, energy and beauty of Indiran born as Dharmar, Beema, Arjuna, Sahadevan & Mahadevan respectively

IMHO,Indiran is a position and not a single person. I remember reading this in one of Swami Vivekananda's lectures.

Assuming all what you have said as an explanation is true, it was not known in the period of Mahabaratha. All of these people were mortals. Also how did kunti knew about this?

Reasons like what you have stated were all "cooked up" ( not in a bad sense) by the society with the passage of time to accept the godliness in these epics.

But Pandavas always went by chathriya dharma. After 13 years of vanavasam Pandavas asked their share that is half of the kingdom. When refused they asked atleast five towns or five villages or five grounds (each one for five pandavas) that also was not given. When all the doors were closed Lord Krishna planned for Gurchethra war.

But the war had been planned at the gambling time itself when draupadi said she will wash her hair with durchAdhanAs blood. Bheema was totally against putting draupadi as a pawn at the gambling.BharathiyAr renders, bheema's anger, this scene so well in his poem.

And for why the duruyOdhanAs did not ask for apology.what can I say, it was a man's world then as it is now I guess.(Not in a bad sense ).

Also there would not have been an epic if there are NO twists and turns. Will there be?
