I agree with you mostly, but dwarves and elves cam apart in the first age and have been growing even more apart, since the Nauglamir was stolen by the dwarves and they have been telling bad stories about each other for a very long time. However, you are right that many people are too short-sighted to see this and I am impressed at how you interpreted the story of Moria. But you have to admit that the dwarves' greed at least partially caused their demise.
