I don't understand how your imagination can be at fault?

If you have imagined curved swords for elves then so be it. All I am saying is that it does not appear to match what JRRT wrote. It was a choice the film makers chose to make for reasons of visually identifying differences between the races. The elven movie swords are impressive in every respect within the context of the movies, I only wish they had made Glamdring curved to, to match the others. The upcoming movies contain at least 2 impressive examples, being Orcrist and Thranduils sword.

It's possible there is a cultural context to terms like 'irrationality' ...
