It's not so on brand for the rest of the Noldor who followed Fingolfin, bound by kinship to his older half-brother.Ambition to rule their own places - sure. That fits with the Noldor who stayed behind on Middle Earth when most of their host went into the West at the end of the First Age.One other thing that's on brand is the crafting of stuff... that may lead to things not working out as intended - like the Rings of Power. But even   that is largely confined to Fëanorians - like his grandson Celebrimbor. The other Noldor leaders, Gil-galad, Elrond, and Galadriel, all turned Annatar away out of distrust. So there's this reputation for Noldor that mainly just applies to Fëanorians while Galadriel otherwise stands quite apart from in the rest of the First Age information.So, yeah, there's quite a bit of room to disagree with your personal take on it and consider that dragging down the overall quality of the series.</blockquote>
