The article claims that Gil-Galad couldn't be king as a son of Orodreth. What exactly is the reasoning for such a claim? I can't see one, since everything I know about the Noldor inheritance points towards it being possible. OTOH, the main argument against Fingon as the father is pretty serious: the published version makes in unclear how Turgon even got the title ahead of his nephew. Can someone explain, plase?
