Yes he was/is (topic for another day) an ordinary man. At the same time he best of all creation. Allah Swt himself puts RasoolAllah on that pedestal.
Like brother Psyah said, follow the example of the Sahabah. They thought of him as a man but then would try to be to the first to get the water from the Prophet’s Saw ablutions? Why? Did they know something that we don’t?

Yes, the holy prophet (pbuh) is best of all creation. My understanding of the example you have quoted is that companions of the prophet (pbuh) truly valued his being that was indeed a blessing.
