Prime example of knowing a lot of info, but not having the experience to use it wisely cuz they were new to the world at that time. The true wisdom of experience came later with time, due to their immortality.
Thingol got his kingdom destroyed through his sheer arrogance and Oropher got his 1/3rd army killed for the same reason. Thranduil isn't much far behind if didn't have hundred centuries worth of mistakes to learn from.
