I have always wondered what would have happened if Elrond chose himself to be part of the Company, and perhaps along with Glorfindel, and others within his realm that were of similar power and guile. Could seven of the most powerful servants in Rivendell alongside Frodo and Sam have served a better role during the War of the Ring?

Would Elrond's Knowledge have helped the Company see them through their journey to Mordor without entering Moria?

Would Denethor have listened more to Elrond's counsel as opposed to that of Gandalf in Minas Tirith?

How would the Witch King have reacted to seeing Glorfindel or Elrond instead of his encounter with Gandalf at the gate of Minas Tirith?
