Well, although my theory above wasn't stated anywhere, it doesn't mean it isn't in the realm of possiblity. The fun of these discussions are, Tolkien created a world with rules. As long as you fall within those rules, almost anything goes (note the almost. There are some situation I cannot foresee now where the rules might not work.)

For example, I wouldn't say Orcs have wings, even though Tolkien did not explicitly say they did not have wings.
