If the goal is to make it difficult, but not impossible, to thwart Luthien's and Beren's marriage, then it would seem that evicting Huan would serve the purpose.
Melian would still be around to moderate Thingol's arrogance (rumor has it Beren once said "You can't do business with that hothead"). Without Huan it would
be humongously difficult to get even one Silmaril. So:
+ + Huan
(hope I did that right).
