Yes, IMO Cuivienyarna is conceived to be and Elvish fairy-tale. But the actual info that 144 awoke shouldn't be regarded as 'historically' true, considering that it is stated in the 'The Clan-names' section of Quendi and Eldar? (Whence you broght that first quote, Galin.)
And the statement 'and these proportions were approximately maintained until the Separation' doens't seem to enter into the 'fairy-tale', does it?
