In tabletop, when you roll for stealth, you roll for getting hidden all around, not just walking behind a dude and crouching.

And if you want to have someone else rank different races, here is a good site that goes into detail with races for each class, feats, etc:

Agree with Myth: fun is the only thing that matetrs. If people would play according to most efficient races, Gith and half orcs would be much higher on the played races list. My point was just, that you forgot the racial of the lightfoot halflings: advantage on stealth checks, which is actually pretty good in game.
But generally, I think, people should play, what they like.

Edit: Oh and I'm not looking for even more race ranking.
