Blighty is of course a slang term, used by British fighters in the first and second world war meaning Britain. I use it as Tolkien himself used it; it’s a mark of respect.It does say somewhere in silm that Beleriand was on a time the most beautiful part of Middle Earth until it got kind of ruined by Morgoth. So perhaps it was destroyed as there would never be a land to its like. Much in the same way as Feanor said he would never make the likes of the silmarills again and the Teleri said of their boats the same.
