Daniel 7:13 it is used as a title for a divine person “The Son of man”.

How do you know that? Hebrew did not distinguish between lower case and upper case letters. In fact the NIV doesn't capitalize "son of man"

In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. [Dan 7:13, NIV]

and neither does the Jewish Tanakh

I saw in the visions of the night, and behold with the clouds of the heaven, one like a man was coming, and he came up to the Ancient of Days and was brought before Him.

but it does capitalize "Him" meaning God as is obvious from the next verse in which He (God) gives him (son of man) dominion of eternal kingdom (the world to come under human messiah, as Judaism believes).

The OT speaks of nations knowing the justice (punishment, fear in OT terms) of the God of Abraham threough this son of man, and Daniel 14 speaks of the him (lower case h) receiving

dominion and glory and a kingdom, and all peoples, nations, and tongues shall serve him; his dominion is an eternal dominion, which will not be removed, and his kingdom is one which will not be destroyed.

It is eternal but not heavenly. Son of man never meant God in Judaism And Son of God never meant God in Judaism either.

he affirmed it by saying “you say that I am” and they understood that to mean he was affirming the title to himself

That's what the Gospels say but in reality that's no affirmation.

just as he did when Pilate asked him if he was “King of the Jews”, an eschatological title of looked for kingdom

Escathological in terms of delivering Israel from the hands of the Romans to the hands of the the Jewish King-Savior, not to a divine Person.

The messianic King of the Jews is a man, not God. His mission is to restore the Kingdom of Israel and establish world dominion. Notice, in Daniel it doesn't say the whole world will "worship" him (as a God) but serve him (as their Lord).

“The word Son of Man (ben adam) means simply the son of Adam, a descendent of Adam, a human being, of Adam’s seed”

“Daniel 7:13 it is used as a title for a divine person “The Son of man”.

“How do you know that? Hebrew did not distinguish between lower case and upper case letters”

There is only one place that bar enash (son of mankind) is used in the scripture for Son of Man and that is Daniel 7:13. In all other places “son of man” is a translation of ben adam. “Bar” is the word used for son in Daniel 3:35 for “son of God”, (bar elahh). That is why it is a title and not just a descriptive term, at least, it’s a good conjecture.
