Tolkien made quite a few mistakes in LotR in terms of coherence, and many many more in his other writings. One of the major ones that no one has pointed out so far is the "Nazgual Cant cross the river" and then having a Nazhgal fly overhead. But none of the mistakes that I have found bother me one bit, maybe its because its Tolkein's imaginary universe, and in my opinion, he can do what he pleases.
Cirdan does have a beard, it is not a mistake, but he is the only known elf to have a beard, but he deserves it too, living in the havens for like 7000 years helping other people go to the Undying-Lands while he must stay, all just because he was loyal to his king.
