Mithadan: "While he was willing to edit LoTR as to certain details, he generally did not make significant
revisions. Thus, he would likely have not ultimately changed Celebrimbor's parentage significantly "

I have come across an opinion of CRRT or 2 that indicates such.

re: the rings as a functional imitations of the Silmarillion , the ellesar[s] was another attempt in this direction I believe. There is little doubt that the Noldor [or some of them] were obsessed w/ Co- creative technology
whose consequences were [imo] as well thought out as thegun and automobile. And something such as the Silmarils -the supreme feat of noldorin manipulations would have become the template [on many levels] for feanors descendants and fellow craftsmen.
