The Doriath point is an excellent one, Bombadil, and one that got me thinking further. The 'exclusion' policy practiced by Thingol may have been indicative of a characteristic of the Teleri in general.
And perhaps the Noldor and the Avari had more in common, were from the start more 'outward' looking?
I think I read somewhere (a Michael Martinez essay?) that in one version of events, the Avari were mostly made up of the same original Cuivienan tribe as the Noldor. Does anyone know any more about this?
