hmmmm,
I wonder if it is because of the nature with which Gimli asked... he had no idea how precious the gift he was asking for was. He was aking out of respect and friendship.
If I understand the request of Feanor, he seemed to be asking out of greed (as always)..
btw, I do not recall this exchange between Feanor and Galadriel - can you post a more specific referrence from UT please? (i.e. chapter) I have looked in "The HIstory of Galadriel and Celeborn", but can't find it...
