I can't find fault in your pro-Celebrian vote,
Sauce, so you can rest easy on that.
I do, however, take issue with your anti-Celebrimbor stance (as usual).

A ridiculous statement, if I may say so.
The mess you are speaking of is the Ring mess, obviously. Now answer me this- since the Ring thing would have happened even without him, how can you possibly justify saying that he caused it?
CELEBRIMBOR DID NOT CAUSE THE RING INCIDENT!!!
SAURON DID!!!
The only way the Ring wouldn't have happened is if Sauron hadn't thought of it. Celebrimbor was not necessary to Sauron's Ring plot. The ONLY things Celebrimbor added to the situation was the crafting of three powerful rings that were a great help to the good guys as well as the sensitivity to perceive Sauron's plot just in time to stop it from succeeding.
Without Celebrimbor, the whole Ring affair would've been a far bigger plus for Sauron.
(the above is not opinion- it is FACT!)
