Elrond can't drop Isildur into the fire because Isildur has the ring and nobody can intentionally destroy the ring.

Gollum was only able to destroy the ring because he's fucking stupid.

If you're smart enough to consider that this would destroy the ring, then you can't do it. It's intentionally destroying the ring.

That was my first read, but I think the color change is supposed to mean he's recalling the story later.
