"Straightforward position" and "moral Typhoid Mary" in the same phrase? That is a bit amusing for a non-native speaker like me . On the topic: that Hurin was released to be a "hate factor", I agreed with back when I quoted the reason why he was released. The case in point is the degree of control that Melkor had over the fall of Doriath. You previously argued he was "hyper intelligent", and thus he had the means. However, as I pointed previously, the horde, oath and kinslaying that you invoked were correlated to Melkor, but he did not create and control them. I'm afraid that, at this point, I said as much as I could on this subject.
