I was writing as you posted - and I so completely agree with many of your ideas! Melkor does have an almost childish weakness in his ability to be deeply wounded. And I also agree with your take upon how pity would really backfire against anyone feeling that for him. Like petting a hurt scorpion. Ouchie.

It's not easy for us Mortals to see it as a gift, is it?

I think the "gift" is not connected to "free will".
