I concur with what it has been said and sadly I think that Fëanor's death was convenient to the Noldor in General. The internal rift between the Noldor wouldn't have been "healed" (to a point), Fëanor would have not liked the way that Thingol threated the Noldor (exception of the House of Finarfin).
I think that the only plus side, is that he would have gone and tried to attack Morgoth with a great force of War against Angband, like the one Fingofin tried to do, but the Noldor were unwilling.
