Wow,
TM, that's a lot of quotes! I think that the Ainur and Eru use familiars becaue they are like one family, in a way...
Funnily enough, there were no "thous" and "thees" where I most expected them to be - in
The Words of Hurin and Morgoth, COH. Even when the two throw insults at each other.

This last then I will say to you, thrall Morgoth... ~Hurin

Maybe they both want to show that they wouldn't go so low as to show their scorn in such an ungallant way?
And the same goes for Thingol, when he spoke to Beren.
