Though again, when it is the majority and has been the majority for untold milleniums...

It stops being mere "generalization", which it never really was in the first place since it really is how the majority of thinks, behaves and feels.

The average Altmer/(elf in general) is not Fasendil, nor Niranye those are the exceptions, it's instead Ancano and Athal Sarys that form the base of elven thoughts and ideals.

Until Elves deal with that, well they need only remember the Falmer to know what happens when they push humans too far.
