I must say, WarBringer, I'm extremely glad you weren't in command of the host of exiled Noldor! It would have been a black day for the poor old Sindar when you touched Middle-earth sand...

Anguirel, if you can point out where I said "getting that nasty ol' Thingol out of the way would have been a blessing?", I will give you everything in my bank account. Understand that conflict does not mean utter defeat, or even necessarily physical conflict, or else the Noldor would have been defeated on the outset. I simply meant, quite rationally in my opinion, that It would be difficult for two elves of such might to coexist on Middle Earth. In a SEPARATE point, I do believe Feanor could have united the Noldor. Fingolfin was a strong ruler but himself diverted to Feanor while he lived, and yet Fingolfin is accounted among the great High Kings. Imagine Feanor as High King, of whom Fingolfin was but a sub ruler. Feanor, with his strength of will and cunning, would have united the Noldor before long, and would have contested Morgoth in Middle Earth.
In the future, I would ask that no one make rash inferences or jump to conclusion. Conflict does not mean "getting some one out of the way". Also notice that I never used the term "war", I said "fought". Not necessarily physically, in other words.
