Even if the reason was this "primacy", I don't see why Vána and Vairë should be considered "lesser" than, let's say, Nessa or Estë. We are told that Yavanna, Nienna and Varda were three of the Aratar, so then I would eventually understand if
elempi dropped the remaining four. But this just does not make sense. And even in that case (to continue in the "feministic rant"
), I would expect him to also drop those who are not among Aratar even between the male Valar.
