I have no light to shed on the recent post, but I do have a question. If Dior's marrige wasn't regarded as a union between Edain/Eldar, why is Arwen/Aragorn's? They are both descended of Dior, and strictly speaking, Arwen still is pretty peredhil-like. She is just over 3 quarters Elf, but wouldn't she still be ranked as a peredhil? Or is it because Elrond chose to be counted as an Eldar, and Elros chose to be counted as an Edain? Or am I just thinking too much?
