 Transmitting Scripture across Culture
Nothing in Buddhism prevents translation of the scriptures (the historical Buddha, Guatama Siddhartha, is said to have encouraged preaching in the local languages of the people) and so cultural influence, not strictly religious protocol, decided the linguistic issue in both eastern and western Central Asia.
According to tradition, the historical Buddha was born in the fifth century B.C.E. or shortly before, into the ruling family in a minor kingdom in what is now Nepal.

 The Four Noble Truths: Part 1 Of 5   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
So the Buddha's teaching was aimed toward those with only a little dust in their eyes - I'm sure he did not think it would become a mass, popular movement.
That statement: "I am the Buddha, the perfectly enlightened one" is interesting to contemplate because it connects the use of "I am" with superlative attainments or realisations.

The question of the nature of the Buddha and that nature in relation to the nature of the enlightened followers is not quite as you have presented it.
When the Buddha was asked _after_ his enlightenment what he was he denied that he was a mere human being or that he was a god or a demon.
And this is in the context of the Buddha starting out as a "mere" human being, vowing to the Buddha Dipankara, some eons ago, that he to would in some future life break through to enlightenment and make it known for the welfare of all beings.
