Just saying it never does say Legolas of Gondolin is an Gnome, and I would like it if someone would at least concede that there is not much in the way or evidence to disprove that the Legolai (i love that word now) are one.

"It" does say that. Legolas of Gondolin is from the 'Fall of Gondolin' in BoLT 2. There were no Sindar in Gondolin when that story was written. In fact there were no Sindar whatsoever when that story was written. The Sindar had yet to be invented. When that story was written only Gnomes (Noldoli) dwelt in Gondolin: "Know then that the Gondothlim were the kin of the Noldoli who alone escaped Melko's power when at the Battle of Unnumbered Tears he slew and enslaved their folk...".
What there is nothing of is any evidence whatsoever circumstantial or otherwise to prove that the two Legolas' are the same.
