Though, Recneps, that could easily be historical bias. Who wrote the histories? Mostly Elves, and of those, most of what is written is done by Calaquendi, and then the rest by the Sindar. We hear absolutely nothing of the Avari, but all the same, that doesn't make them realistically any less physically different. To simulate the technological difference between Sindar and Noldor in the mod, I'd agree, a small change is likely, and perhaps even a small difference between Avari and Sindar, but I would sure as hell not endorse any way in which the Avari would be made lesser than those around them, and certainly, with the relatively low birth rates one could easily assume that if they are indeed hostile to those who surround them, they are also far superior, as even over all of history (history since their Awakening that is) they have remained in situ, which suggests great strength, strength in reluctance perhaps, but they have indeed remained there for long enough to demonstrate power over being moved, defeated, or anything of such like.
