That is of course an argument against the story we produced, but as you mention yourself this come from a draft in form of a time-line that Tolkien produced while working on the story of Túrin/Húrin. You will find many examples where the later fully developed text of the Narn and/ or The Wanderings of Húrin differ from these priliminary draftings. And the two Versions of Androgs curse upon Mîm we considered to have more weight than this draft. Equaly which version of the curse one takes, none would fit the only full telling from JRR Tolkien of the encounter of Húrin and Mîm from TT nor the later short discribtions. Therefore we concluded that this 'arrow in the throat'was the lasting picture in Tolkiens mind that we should addopt for our version.
