Where did you see that the average Elf lifespan is 2900 years?, i have never seen that info anywhere. Second, lets look at lore for a sec, remember the snow elves. When the nords came to Skyrim they started reproducing crazy fast this scared the Snow elves as they would be outnumbered soon, see humans reproduce faster than elves(this may mean elves don't have as many children or that they wait to have children, like one every few years or so). This means the humans OUTNUMBER the elves, no amount of math will change that fact.

If you READ my comment you'll see i said destroid the Cyrodiil invasion force(it was the biggest elven army ever assembled, and obviously the biggest of the AD's armies), they did have other smaller armies, one of which invaded Hammerfell and failed. The Empire also suffered heavy casualties, the Emperor feared invading the AD as they were not a full strength, and like i said the troops were tired as they had been fighting for 5 years, invading the AD may have been a stupid move that is why Titus agreed to the WGC.

The AD did want Hammerfell, one of the terms of the WGC was that territories in Hammerfell were to be given to the AD, the redguards refused therefore declaring independence from the Empire. The fact is the AD wants Hammerfell(the south atleast).

Freedom is always beter than subjugation. The bosmer are treated as second class citizens by the Altmer, any bosmer who speaks against this is "purged". After a while a rebelion will start, all we can argue is when it will start. Like i said the Khajiit don't share the Thalmor's views, if the AD starts lossing they will see its a lost cause and switch sides, fun fact: the khajiit leader, the Mane, is being blackmailed into helping the AD, he doesn't like them. If he speaks out against the Thalmor the Khajiit will switch sides.

" you're making ridiculously dull arguments." what do you mean arguments based on logic and lore, please elaborate on how they are "dull". You seem to be blindly following the elven supremacy band wagon, even so you should be able to see logic and reason above your meaningless speculation.
