Well, as this is a debate, & as others (specifically
H-I) had already suggested that Eru was acting out of compassion & mercy, & so, by implication, had accepted him back into the Divine bosom, I assumed that offering alternatives to that would be sufficient to make the point; clearly that was 'too simple for a learned lore-master in these suspicious days'.
