It can't start at the awakening because Feanor's fea was stronger than Finwe's. I think it has to do with the fact that there were less Elves in the Third Age than in the First Age that would mean there were less powerful ones. It also may have to do with the fact that most of the remaining elves were Silvan or Sindarin in origin not Eldarin.
