Frodo offered......but, as Bilbo discovered, offering and doing are not the same thing.

That's a good point.

Small thing about evil and JRRT. He tried and tried to come up with a solution to how the orcs came to be, but never came up with a solution that satisfied him. And in Silmarillion there is the implication that some of the orcs fought against Sauron's forces.

It might be that the War was affecting his ideas. Didn't he say something like "everyone was an orc back then"?
