I wonder whether the silence on this thread is due to exasperation, forgetfulness, or (I hope!) agreement with my last argument.
I bring it up because if there is agreement, then - except for the very minor matter of "sons of the Orcs" - section 3 would appear to be done.
I admit I still have minor reservations relating to the mention of Sauron in ToY. But I suppose an ambiguous version is not possible, unless we sacrifice a great deal of text and continuity.
