As I've said, it was folly to send the hobbits into Mordor. The elves knew themselves for the most part beaten, but even then Lothlóriën, Eryn Galen, and Lindon alike fought on and helped in such folly. Dwarves, what have they done? Blindly charged at Balrogs, refused to share their wealth, and died. That seems apt for such a simple race. The Dwarves killed lots of orcs, they found mithril for the elves and are child of aule, the coolest valar. (except melkor) The elves also killed many, many, more orcs. It's also probable that Aulë taught the elves how to smith mithril, having made it himself - they just didn't have a source in Endorë for themselves. And also, this knowledge is most likely to have been lost over the centuries, and it would also partially explain why things from Aman are so effective - mithril? And, seriously, all Aulë does is smith and while he made the ores of the world there are other Valar far more important. Meanwhile Varda sits on Taliquenta with Manwe, listening to the sorrow of all, visualising the movement of the stars... meanwhile Manwe w atches over  all, but never interferes (except for giving G and alf  a second ch ance...)

Thats just no,  aule is far cooler, he actually works, teaching maiar how to be great smiths just like him, and forging armor and weapons for Dagor Dagorath Manwë had a hand in almost all of the major battles. And what exactly does Aulë do? Manwë's Eagles have affected many things thoughout the history of Arda.
