Such a waste of space. Like the books are already a slog to get through, why not throw in this crazy forest idiot to waste time for 50 pages? Even better to do that before we even really start the story!

I remember reading a theory that Tom is actually modeled after Tolkien himself. He wanted to put himself in the story (according to the theory).

What always seemed interesting to me, is that Tom is aware of all rhe evil going on in the world, and just kind of ignores it. Yet he is supposed to be God basically.

Even the council agrees that he's the most useless character.

"Why don't we just give the ring to Tom Bombadil?"

"Nah, he doesn't give a shit. He'd just lose it while tripping on mushrooms or something."

In the context of the books basically being an allegory for WW1, thats the whole point. That God was indifferent to their suffering was a very common sentiment amongst the populations of the major powers.
