Is that quote from Of The Rings Of Power And The Third Age? If so it could date to before the Waldman letter in any case, generally worded or not. Of The Rings Of Power And The Third Age (in existence by 1948): 'From the Grey Havens the Eldar ever an anon set sail (...) '... for by the mercy of the Valar the Firstborn could still follow the Straight Road and return, if they would, to their kindred in Eressea and Valinor beyond the encircling seas.' 1977 Silmarillion Yes, it´s earlier than the Waldmen letter. So again, no proof. My question would be, WHY did he change his mind about that matter. (if that was his last concept regarding the exils, if we leave ut what he earlier wrote) First he had the opinion that they could not return to Valinor, or only visit, then it seems they could go where they wanted and then suddenly he again doest want them to go to Valinor without restrictions. And after the Waldmen letter he never again was explicit about that.
