What if Lúthien had been "ugly"?

[The Squatter of Amon Rûdh]

I pose this because in the case of Findulias, when Gwindor returned from the Nirnaeth Arnoediad with Túrin to Nargothrond, she stoped loving him and then she turned her love to Túrin. That happened because of the tortures that he suffered while in the service of Morgoth.

Perhaps there was a psychological change wrought by those tortures that adversely affected his personality. It would seem more than a little shallow to turn from him just because he wasn't a fashion plate any longer.
