 Lyta, you played D&D with the wrong people.  My buddies weren't so..shall we say...exacting.  And math is, well, all math to me, so to speak.

 They have wings, but they're just for show (vestigial?).

 Will have to review the scene, but I thought that Saruman was already stabbed, so Legolas wasn't preventing anything but just adding to his total - now if he would have shot  Saruman, sending him backwards and saving him from falling...  
And didn't Gandalf say something about killing needlessly?  I just feel that the Wormtongue 'execution by Elf' wasn't right.
