If the half-elf is the only member of a particular class, and especially if the half-elf is the only one occupying a particular niche, the fact that other races could be better at it doesn't really affect the half-elf. For example, suppose you have a group of PCs where the only arcane caster is a half-elf wizard. Sure, a lot of other races could be better at that role. But since nobody else is playing an arcane caster, the half-elf is going to be the best at that role in the party. The "which race is better at this class/role?" question becomes irrelevant in many PC groups, because there aren't PCs of different races competing to fill the same niche.</blockquote>
