The thing about "The Quest of Erebor"

"The Quest of Erebor" from Unfinished Tales is just an earlier version of the last few pages of Appendix A as told from Gandalf's point of view. There is little there that is not said (or at least implied) in the final, published version from Appendix A. Jackson is probably on solid ground in this case.
'There are older and fouler things than Orcs in the deep places of the world.' - Gandalf the Grey, The Fellowship of the Ring

I don't think it would be because it was too close to JRR Tolkien's vision
