Great ideas, those. The High Elves, in my opinion, were VERY changeaphobic. I do believe that the Valar can be blamed for that. Imagine, living in a place where nothing ever changes, and then someone like Feanor shows up and turns everything upside down. Hard to deal with, right?
Middle Earth's Elves did not really have a problem with change, or like you said, they could deal with it.
And I agree that the Valar were not the best of guardians.
