Now its been a while since I've read the books, but wasn't the body of Aran'gar not so much as "chosen" as that it was what was available? It was then remarked that it was ironic that before he pursued women to satisfy his pleasures, where now he was going to be the one pursued.
I always saw the fact that Balthamel within a female body was far more of a punishment.
