There's no point being made. For all we know, it may have been something that Matsui and his historians were talking about one day, and he thought it would fit what the "God playing the role of the bad guy" would say.After all, any series needs an antagonist, and the godly force possessing Takauji is ours, not Takauji, the real person.
I guess you could argue that all god-like beings are the antagonists, including Tokiyuki's bird (and maybe even the author), and that's the point being made? Without them, Tokiyuki would've been the footnote in history that we know him as, instead of a person rallying thousands of lives to their early death, and Takauji wouldn't indirectly be responsible for the Black Death.
