But Tolkien does?

He had Gandalf having a moment of foresight that Bilbo going on the journey would be crucical. Whether or not Bilbo's presence allowed the dwarves to succeed, idk*, but more importantly, Bilbo discovered the One Ring which sets in motion the events of LOTR.

Granted, this isn't in the main text, but 'The Quest For Erebor' published in Unfinished Tales. So PJ doesn't have the right to this text and he might not (and, imo, probably wouldn't) have used it in fear of alienating a modern audience, but it does exist.

* as far as the version told in the book goes, yes - the dwarves were all rather useless. Later writings (e.g. LOTR appendices, Quest for Erebor) viewed Thorin and the dwarves rather differently.
