What was Tharonwe's reason for trying to confuse Raefindan regarding Mithrellas in the first place? Ack!

Maybe it is the strength of Mithrellas herself, who caused Tharonwe to, ahem, forget.
The Valar caused Amroth to "forget" 1000 years of history, and waiting, a couple of times.
Tharonwe's been so busy torturing the important folks he forgot, or perhaps discounted, the quiet unassuming servants. If they're quiet and unassuming, they must be insignificant anyway. ...Just a thought or so. But I like the idea of Mithrellas hiding herself from Tharonwe, and "letting " him conveniently forget her.
