Eönwë: That was a mighty interesting post, and I particularly picked up on your comment:
“but he can just go to any dimension in his realm.”
Alcuin's comment is equally perceptive:
“What function does Bombadil serve for Tolkien? Is it so obvious we miss it?”
There is a new article on Tom Bombadil – that provides a completely different explanation to any of those I have ever seen. A different “dimension” and “obvious” begins to make sense now.

In fact the proposed solution is so interesting, I think it deserves a thread of its own.
