Everyone knows the Valar are dumb. Just look at the way they handled Melkor and the Noldor.
"Go loose, Melkor. Have fun!"
"What? The most evil of evil guys did something evil?!"
"Feanor- we hereby punish you for failing to remain untainted by Melkor, despite the fact that tainting you was his number one objective and that he's too powerful for any lesser being to fully resist. How dare you not do the impossible!"
"Okay, so, I realize Melkor stole the greatest work of art ever and killed your dad, but just, you know, sit tight and don't do anything."
"Erm... We can stop the incredibly desperate Noldor from leaving by telling their friends in Alqualonde to refuse them help. Nothing bad can possibly come of that."
