As for several versions of the story, I do believe that may very well complicate matters to the extreme for more inexperienced readers. The Sil is already a gigantic task for the average LoTR reader.

Agreed. I've hit on this point a lot recently, sorry. But adding this in would be like adding all the early conceptions of the LotR in, it's over doing it. If a reader wants to read about Eriol, let him read HoME.
