I am unaware of any other source we have from Christopher Tolkien, which further addresses the issue except for 'Laws and Customs' and the part in the Children of Hurin.

Well there's the Tolkien-written note from VT. We have that from CJRT too, as he gave it to the editors of VT to publish.
And in my opinion 50 years, or for some 100 years [let's not forget], is different enough to me. You can paint it a 'big jump' as you like, or call it an 'assumption' that Tolkien dismissed the idea...
... but you can't claim you know for sure that L&C is a given here.
