Why is it "still very great"?

Because it's from The Children of Hurin, where CRT has avoided like the plague any deviation from the source-texts, unlike his younger self.
I don't believe he planned the Fall of Doriath in detail. But he did know that Hurin would bring hate and malice with him, which would bear fruit; and far more powerfully than did young Turin, who only precipitated the death of Saeros and his own exile. And if the Oath and the Kinslaying played roles, well, Morgoth was behind those too.
