Indeed. And maybe just to say what I had mentioned in my first post, but it had just occured to me now that I could say it more clearly: let us remember that Sauron had, since the time of Bilbo, openly proclaimed himself the lord of Mordor again, and had rebuilt Barad-dur. Gandalf makes a big deal out of that event, so I believe we should too.
