One problem, though: While the part about Turin coming back and killing Morgoth should be fine, the part in HoMe (IV or V?) about Feanor returning the Silmarils to Yavanna, the mountains of Valinor being levelled, etc., disagrees with the later cosmology: that the world was made round, and (more importantly) that Valinor sort of disappeared into its own universe (or at least became inaccessible physically to the rest of the world).

Why exactly is Feanor returning the Silmarils to Yavanna Palurien a problem? They can still be used to rekindle the Trees for Valinor. Or are you referring to teh fact that Valinor's Trees would no longer change the world of M-e?
