There is general recognition of Beren's achievements and the legitamacy of the award, however Foolofatook thinks that consideration should have also been given to the hobbits Frodo, Sam, Pippin, and Merry as well as the man Beregond, and the woman Eowyn for facing equally deadly odds with significantly less power. This applies especially to Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Eowyn who faced down evils comparable to Morgoth not just deeds comparable in deadlyness.
