Actually, I do have an understanding of the role minor characters play. They often make invaluable contributions. However, major characters make
several invaluable contributions, and in many cases cannot be replaced.
For instance, some other guy could've saved the shards of Narsil. It didn't have to be Ohtar.
Sauron and Elrond on the other hand- some of the things they did could not have been done by anyone else. They are singular talents. I am of the opinion that we should protect our singular talents.

I imagine anything more complicated than putting one foot in front of the other is a bit beyond your capabilities.

So what? I happen to like a couple of them too (but I'm not foolish enough to say who, as it would make them a target of those who envy me).
It doesn't matter so much to me that someone I love wins. It matters more that someone worthy of representing the entire Second Age wins.
