You did not have to write this long post if you knew that the ayat you colored in red is still talking about the first Wahi and not the incident of Meraj. Because ayaat of Meraj starts from ayat 13.

I see the way you are interpreting is, it takes the whole ayat out of context.

And of course, I knew the words ‘spiritual journey’ will be thrown at this and therefore I had said “unless ofcourse you deny that this ever happened”

I did not deny tht this happened. Qur’an mentions it. It did happen.
The seeing of eye is different then seeing of heart.

The heart of the Prophet lied not in seeing what he saw.(53:11)
And We made not the Vision which We showed thee but as a trial for men… (17:60)

Ibn-e-Abbas (ra) relates that the Holy Prophet (sa) saw Allah two times through his heart. (Muslim Kitab-ul-Īman)

Hadhrat Ayesha (ra) says:
Whosoever thinks that Prophet Muhammad (sa) saw his Lord, he surely attributed a great lie on God…Haven’t you heard that Allāh says that the eyes do not reach Him but He reaches the eyes. (Muslim Kitab-ul-Īman – Book of Faith)

And he was sleeping in Kaaba…His heart was awake but his eyes were sleeping but his heart was not sleeping…and when he woke-up, he was in Kaaba. (Bukhari Kitab-ul-Tauheed)

Hadhrat Ayesha (ra) states, swearing to God, that during M`eraaj, the body of the Holy Prophet (sa) did not disappear. By God, the body of the Holy Prophet (sa) did not disappear, but he was raised spiritually. (Tafseer Kashāf)
