A little can be pretty. Maybe as chapter subtitles. But it can easily be too much.

I don't mind it as subtitles or little quotes at the beginning of a chapter. But when it gets randomly thrown in all over the place, it gets annoying.

Aww, I really like this! As long as it's not laid on too thick. I mean, if you take the trouble to learn any Sindarin or Quenya, it's not like you have many other places to show it off.

I'm reading fics by a really great LOTR silmarillion writer and the 18 names of the elves are confusing the shit outta me that I would prefer if it was just straight elvish (but then which alphabet? god).

Don't suppose you've got a link for the fics? I'm looking to get into LOTR fic and would like a good place to start

The author is Dialux, their stuff is here: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Dialux/pseuds/Dialux

I don't know if I'd say they're a good place to start however. They do mostly Silmarillion fics and have def anti-Valar biases lolol. But I found the writing itself to be good.

Yes, to this. It really grates on my nerves as well. Language can help immerse when used well, it very very rarely is.

Define "gratuitious"? I mean LotR itself could potentially be described as full of gratuitous Elvish...
