In any case, to summarise, the house of stewards would never be able to claim the throne - since not descendent of Elendil - they might be able to claim kinship with Elros (although we cannot as to now find out through whom), and Elros's descendents in general are rather scarce, though it's hard to make an estimate who s descended of him by the end of the 3rd age.

laurens, I'm afraid you're confusing me. I'm pretty sure your summary here is almost an exact opposite of what
Formendacil actually said!
Unless you're summarising something else, of course.
