That's a really appropriate response, tho not quite right. Aule, a Vala had a 'portfolio' in crafting and making in a particular sphere or area.

So, tho the identity you've named is not quite right, the area of Aule's 'making' in Arda is one and the same with the He of the riddle. And for very much similar reasons as you've given.
