Doesn't she sing to flowers in a garden or some similar nonsense?

Okay, it says she hangs about flowering trees, and apparently she can make flowers bloom... So I'm counting it as fitting.

On a serious note, yes, 14 is really big number, but then again, she definitely is the one to lead.
Psh... She's the wife of a character that doesn't even belong in the legendarium. She's very nice and all, but her primary accomplishment seems to be hanging about Tom's house cooking and singing.

She's a Disney princess.

Okay, maybe she belongs ahead of Ar-Zimraphel, whose major life-events were losing the scepter and drowning.

Thuringwethil on the other hand flew about Tol In Gaurhoth and Angband, and presumably ate people.

Or Aredhel, who was an adventurer/hunter/etc. that the king of Gondolin couldn't do squat to restrain when she felt like hanging out with her cousins. Not to mention she sacrificed herself for her kid, which gets her points.

And then there's Nerdanel, who set the record for creating kids (and awesome ones at that), and was a great sculptor, and actually captured Feanor's fiery heart for a time, and was the only person that could influence him.
