I know what you are saying Six, but when the Numenoriands became Numenorians I kinda feel that they became something different to both elves and normal men. Supposedly the herald of Manwe comes to these men after their battles with Morgoth, when allied to the Elves and Vallah and he teaches them many things about the world. This extends their life and makes them harder in spirit and body than normal men, but they still remain mortal.

I know that Elros would have been half elven if you look at his roots, but I think the Numenorians was kind of a new race created after Morgoth was beaten. Half elves were very rare and not allowed to remain half elves it seems, that's why Elros and Elrond had to choose between mortal and immortal life - becoming more like a human or more like an elf. That's my take on it all anyway [img]smile.gif[/img]
