that is a very awesome analysis! I haven't seen a copy of HOME or UT in so long because in the last move I lost so many books to water damage. So the 'necromancy" idea, even if used in origin casually by JRR, was fleshed out (haha. sort of punny) to continue the struggle between Morgoth and the Elves he despised, threfore a continuation of the essential conflict through the activities of Sauron. So as you say not only does Ringcrafting allow for the attempt to enslave other races, can we go a step further and say that because the othe races lack the fea then the idea of domination through temptation with physical objects (particularly as a Maiar of The Great Smith) evolved directly from that fact? So logically can we infer that Necromancy begat Ringmaking?
