After choosing mortality, would not then the subject be mortal? And once mortal, would he not then only be able to have mortal offspring, unless his wife renews the Elvish blood in the line? However, if the subject chooses the fate of the Elves, his children would remain "partially immortal", if I may put it so. They would thus also be given the choice of fates, and the line would continue to be given this choice until one chose mortality and ended the Elvish immortality running in their veins.
At least that's how I see it.
