I would argue that halflings have just as big of a problem. They've changed more than gnomes over several editions. Ok so they're hobbits. No? Oh they're like talkative inquisitive 'acquirers' like kender. No? Oh they're wandering gypsies. No? Oh they're river folk? Where the hell did that come from? No?
I've always gotten that gnomes are the best mix between the elves and the dwarves. And able to get along with both. Hardy and magical. Lovers of mining, gems, and also the green. Oh, and a little devious when crossed. No more ridiculous than a race that refuses to wear shoes so that foot hair is their most distinguishing feature . ;-)
