No, I am not forgetting. Luthien was the only _Elf_ allowed to change fate, as I stated above, JRRT refers to her as an 'absolute exception'. The others you named above are not Elves. They are Peredhil (Half-elves), except Tuor, who is a Man (and the only Man allowed to change his fate, JRRT refers to him as a 'unique exception'). However you are correct in that Eru was the one who allowed the exceptions and special position of the Peredhil.
