Michael and his family weren't there.
Hence, no smiting was necessary. I think this would have been a bit of a borderline case, so Molly did Uriel a favour by avoiding the need for smiting.

Molly moved them across the street to her house because Listen and company could get past the angel guard. That is what the Titan thought she was showing him, but it was an illusion sent by Molly, only she left out Mouse, and Harry knew that they'd only got to Maggie over Mouse's dead body and he wasn't to be seen, so he knew the vision was fake, maintained his focus and will.
But if they hadn't been moved, it sounds like Listen and Company could have gotten past the angels just like Nic's guys were able to.

It sounds like. But, I think it was a borderline case, and hence the lack of smiting doesn't PROVE they're too human.
Either Molly's favour is the Angels don't have to smite in dodgy circumstances, or they don't have to let bad guys get away with bad things on their watch. Either way, they got a favour done.
Dina:
I think what proves that they are human is that Molly needed to do the moving. The bad guys know about Michael's retirement package. If they risked go to the house is because they thought they were safe.

The line between human and not human is sometimes a bit vague because it is an arbitrary line. It is entirely possible that the line drawn by the angels differs from the line drawn by the white council. And even that line might be different under circumstances, that is who is accused by who and who has the right connections.

In the case of the Turtlenecks they started out human, were kidnapped by the Fomor and were genetically altered so they could live under water, they have gills, that is what their turtlenecks hide.
So mortal? Yes.. But still human? Who knows?
