Momoshiki IS Kinshiki son? Or is that just speculation? Also, wasnt Momoshiki also a member of the royalty Otsutsuki, like Kaguya?

We've already told you where the info is, now if you want to go actually look, that's on you. We all already understand they're father and son, but no one just remembers off-hand which page it is. The book is available to read at various places online, go for it.
It seems that in the Otsutsuki Clan, once a male has a son, he simply gets degraded into a food source for him. I wonder if the same is true for father-daughter, mother-son/daughter.
If so, then it means that it's a standard for Otsutsuki to absorb their parent/parents.
It's their way of assuring that certain traits don't disappear between generations, probably.
"Congratulations, it's a boy!" :-D "Your boy will grow up to be big and strong, and then eventually you'll become food for him, just as your father became food for you." :-/ In any case, you've given food for thought (no pun intended). Edit- Oh, I just thought of something. Wasn't it presented as voluntary in the movie, but not in the manga?
Well, in the manga, Momoshiki specifically stated that absorbing their own parents' is the way of passing down the power onto the next generation traditional to the Ootsutsuki clan.
Ironically, Hagoromo essentially absorbed his mother, even though not intentionally. He pretty much did what is customary to his clan, unbeknownst to him though.
In Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Road To Boruto, it's stated that Kinshiki is Momoshiki's FATHER FIGURE. That might mean that he's his father, or just that Momoshiki considered him his father.
Maybe it is a part of Otsutsuki clan culture for children to absorb their parents to gain their power, even though we haven`t seen many examples of it, we can guess. Perhaps this is their own twisted way of making sure that the young surpasses the old and if you think about it, there is some fridge horror in there, maybe the reason we haven`t seen Otsutsuki clan members in larger group numbers is because they attack each other for their chakra when they are not directly related( as a way of not killing their parents). The boruto movie possibly confirms it with the reveal that kaguya created the zetsu army to ward off momo and co. because they would cannibalize her. Also this is my first post on the naruto wiki.
Welcome to the wiki :) I hope we learn much more about the Otsutsuki.
Here is the reason on why Kinshiki considers Momoshiki a "lord";
Due to the law of consistency, adult Otsutsukis sees the younger ones as royalties. The reason behind that Is because Otsutsuki kids carry the legacy of their ancestors. The young ones are the culmination of the continues evolution of their clan.
There is another reason why Momoshiki is "so special" to his father (to the that point he allows himself to be converted into a chakra fruit ).
