I don't know Rory. Never underestimate the power of opposites attracting. Some human couples resemble a halfling and an orc.
Semi-unrelatedly, I have the same objection about Elrond being a half-elf that I have about Spock being half Vulcan. Elrond is more elf than any other elf; Spock is more Vulcan than any other Vulcan! If they're not fully embodying elfness/Vulcanity, WHO DOES?
It's true, I sometimes feel about Spock the way I feel about Data: they're both protesting way too much in the "As you know, I have no emotions, and therefore cannot grieve/comfort you/commit to a monogamous relationship/pick you up at the airport" department.
