They would have found another way without ye olde Tree-Whisperer. Can you imagine being Goldberry and having to listen to that shit every damned day of your eternal life?
I don’t see how. Tom saved them from Old Man Willow and the barrow wight. Without his help, they never would have made it out of the Old Forest, and Sauron would have recovered the Ring.
Even more importantly, he gave Merry the Numenorean blade he used to stab the Witch King. Turned the whole tide of the war, that did.
And I’m pretty sure Goldberry knew what she was getting into.
