Gotta call you out on this again. "But I should not change much." You continue to portray JRRT as disowning TH as an M-e story when the bulk of the evidence shows that he considered it an essential part of his M-e mythology.
So would you throw out all post-late-1930's work on the Sil, seeing as how it became "infected" at that point by the influence of TH, and later LotR? You say you acknowledge the evolving nature of the legendarium but for some reason refuse to admit that evolution included TH.

That's a big negatory. It's like reading about the Battle of Agincourt and then deducing that humans would never come up with
Saturday Night Live. It would be out of character. You don't think a dwarf ever played an instrument or sang a comic song?
Anywho, this is getting more than a little repetitive. You are welcome to your
Hobbit-free legendarium as far as I'm concerned.
