Basically, this is all I was getting at:

Currently it cannot be used to transmit information, but a refined understanding and the advancement of the technologies used to observe particles might lead to an everyday application. The idea is just that, if it were possible to put this phenomenon to practical use, the results might eventually look something like Palantir communication.
I have always imagined that the magic of the Elves, the Istari, and various other embodied Ainur had perhaps more to do with their understanding of the natural world than any inexplicable powers. As a result of such a thorough understanding--and perhaps, in the case of the Ainur as co-creators, also a peculiar connection to the fundamental forces and materials of the physical world--they were capable of manipulating the material around them in ways Men could not understand.
