Ceasar would not have been living with Calpurnia at the time. Cleopatra was in Rome at the time of his death and with his new son, Calpurnia was all but a thing of the past.
I have never heard Ceasar referred to as the first Emperor. Imperator as a title was granted to him the same as it had been to any other victorious general before him. His title was dictator for life. Neither was Octavian in Rome at the time of Ceasars death.
You can nit pick the history all you want. The creators are very aware, probably moreso than most about the history. They need to create drama not a documentary.
