They just entered iron age, and have nails to spare..? In the real world, people burned down their old houses to take the iron nails with them to use them on the new house - that's how valuable those were in the beginning.

That's a story from the early days of the American frontier. Pioneers did not have a very steady supply due to lack of local developed infrastructure. Also, the buildings in question were not ones built with the longterm in mind anyway. Burning them was just the lazy way to retrieve the iron and it pissed off the authorities too.

Early Iron Age people used actual woodworking and wooden pegs for house construction, as the Gods intended.
The iron that was available was used for axes/adzes/spears/knives/daggers. Y'know... tools you can build a house and farm/hunt with.....

When it comes to housebuilding, or any form of construction great or small... Nails typically weren't used to begin with. Allll the way up to our modern age.
The tools were copper/bronze/iron/steel.. The rest was done with joinery and glue.
The nails you do find are usually used to attach ornaments to the wooden base, and then quite often not as "nails" but as pointy-ended bolts.

In woodwork, a nail is nothing but a temporary way to keep the wood in place until the other methods of affixing the bits have set.
Then you either take it out, or drive it through and mask it. Unless it's for decorative purposes, leaving nails visible means Sloppy/Cheap Work.

IIRC, the daughter, mother, and the adults in the villager know he’s not actually a god. The villagers still revere him though.

I've no idea where you got that, but even the Romans around 1 AD were already mass producing nails and using them in all sorts of construction, especially military structures. It was a significant boost to the speed at which they were able to do it. They are also commonly found in remains of furniture from all periods since that time as structural elements, not decoration.

I'm no carpenter, so I won't comment on supposed quality, but historically the methods you've mentioned have been phased out in favour of nails (though they were still common in some places, like Japan), it's only now that they are making a comeback.

It's like when I play Stellaris and irresponsibly improve the technology of a pre-FTL civilization and they start wars

There's a great anecdote about this from an early Japanese ambassador to the United States of America -
