@TheArcReactor - I don't think that the ithildin chisel should be used to write in books - it just doesn't make sense. I also don't think that it would make sense to have a pen write like a chisel. Both of those are still viable options, of course, but that's my two cents.

@OneBehindTheHair - Chisel are kinda fun, and are easier than carrying signs around, but they aren't anything super amazing.

My problem with crafting Ithildin and a book and quill is that it would be way more expensive than it is worth; it would require a mithril nugget and a silver ingot per book, where you would probably only be writing a couple of paragraphs. My personal preference would be that only lore books could use moon-letters, but the whole point of the ithildin pens was to provide a viable alternative.

I also agree with your objection to using dates, but I figured I would include that option because that was how they worked in the Hobbit.
