The argument that elves are better because the Vanyar played a larger role in the War of Wrath then dwarves because there were more of them, isn't a solid one. I don't believe that any of the vanyar were named (Earendil and Finarfin weren't Vanyar) either. I seem to remember getting the impression that there were about as many Maiar as Vanyar when I read the Silmarilion. It wouldn't be unlikely, as before the elves woke, when the host of the Valar laid siege to Utumno, they would require some type of army, I assume that Maiar were the bulk of it, what else could be?
