Legate (and others maybe too) are you saying that Celeborn had more official power than Galadriel the same way Thingol had more offical power than Melian. I've always considered Galadriel and Celeborn "equal rulers" meaning they both had as much power as the another had ie. Celeborn was not the official "head of state" any more than Galadriel was. I'm wondering why do we have different views about the matter and which one is correct.
