I mean the really tricky stuff about age is you really never know. If you look in the charts of Peoples, the 3 stewards before Denethor did not reach 100, but does that mean if Denethor hadn't of gone crazy he wouldn't of reached 100. No because before that, it would range maybe under 100, to 100, or into the 110's, the first ruling steward Mardil was 120, then we know Faramir is also 120. So it's just really one of those mysteries, sort of why do we have people who are done at 75, but there are those that can live to be 100?

The whole think about the half-elven is another tricky concept. The point about Galador and Mithrellas, their children, are in blood "half-elven" but they don't have that half-elven choice of being mortal or immortal. As explained with Earendil and Elwing, Manwe is the one who puts that "choice" on people, it has nothing to do with their lineage. Whether one parent is elven the other is mortal, by blood you could be half-elves, but Manwe puts the "choice" on people, like Earendil and Elwing's sons, Elrond and Elros.
