Re: 144

Hmmm... I've never actually read that essay. But it doesn't sound bad to me. I suppose we could chuck it in and take it out later if we want. It is, after all, a very small point.
Although seventy-two couples is valid enough, I don't think it is valid in other ways, though. The Elves would have had to multiply pretty quickly to produce the large hosts of Teleri, Vanyar and Noldor that travelled to Valinor. They were not discovered long after they awoke, I should think.
