I don't see elvish immortality as a problem, because it caused more good than bad. And there wouldn't have been much of a story to tell otherwise.
NOw why would you say that? Would there even a greater story of the elves if they had a lifespand that of humans? Things do not change much in the land of exstended life...only in the things around them.

Having "immortality" is a catch 22 menaing that you get bad with the good. It is all in how you use it.
