Just as Celebrimbor helped Sauron!

Oh come on, don't you think comparing the Feanorians slaugther in Doriath and Sirion is a bet far-fetched to compare Celebrimbor and the Gwaith-i-Mirdain's forging of the rings? Celebrimbor's motives may have been selfish, but as soon as he learnt that Annatar was lying about his identity, and was evil, they fought back.
IMO, the Feanorians actions were totally blinded by the oath and fate and the will of Illuvutar also had quite a large part to play in the Noldor's deeds. The Noldor kept him from wreaking havoc in M-E, and they also helped men to choose the right path, since many of the Avari and Nandor were unfriendly with them, and some of the Sindar were as well.
But I agree with your view that the Vanyar were the highest or greatest of the Elves, but they certainly aren't my favourites.
