are you unaware that he didn't know haephestus was his mother because he was adopted after his mother and father tried to have him killed as an infant, or are you intentionally ignoring that he didn't know?
He saw her, he found her hot, he had sex with her.
All of this is related to his subconsciousness, which also has access to his body recognizing smell and shape.
That is consistent with the allegation of Freud, that the subconsciousness wants to have sex with the mothers.

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY with any amount of psychology education actually think Freud was right on anything. He was the biggest pseudoscientist of all time.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedipus_complex#Criticism
Nobody is arguing that Freud was right.
They're explaining why Freud named it the Oedipus complex.
I agree with them. Just because Freud was wrong doesn't mean his reasoning for the naming wasn't consistent with his beliefs. He believed that the ignorance allowed Oedipus to express the internal desire that would otherwise be inhibited.
He was wrong, but that explains why he named it this way.
