Experience penalties do contribute to end game Velious content, because you need to keep level 60 to maintain optimal efficacy in PvE. Monks are a great example here. If you are a Monk that mostly Raids, you die a LOT. The 4% experience loss from resurrection adds up rather quickly, which means you need to go and get experience at some point to maintain your ability to raid. Human Monks can objectively spend more time raiding than Iksar Monks, because it takes them significantly less time to maintain level 60.
I disagree with your assessment that specific classes cannot have a best. Troll/Iksar Regeneration is actually the least useful on a Shaman anyway, because Shaman's have the best regenerative ability in the game out of the classes that Trolls/Iksars can be. An Ogre Shaman can Regenerate at 336 HP per tick (not including bard song). A Troll Shaman can Regenerate at 344 HP per tick. That is a difference of 2.5%. It really doesn't matter that much. Troll/Iksar regeneration is much more useful on a non-Shaman, because the difference between 34 and 42 is 19%, which is a much bigger ratio.

Again, you're talking about quality of life here with your experience argument, having to xp less outside of raids, but there is still plenty of time to make up that xp penalty due to the limited amount of mobs we have on this server, and also in theory an iksar monk will die less

Perfectly fine that you disagree, you're just weighing in on your opinion of racial effectiveness in any scenario, same as Danth just did. I just think it's rather naïve to claim you have somehow solved this debate mathematically by summarizing your opinions of each situation a shaman could encounter, when there are plenty of things in life with mathematical foundations that will never be solved. I also think your claim dilutes the guide you have created, which I can appreciate the research and a lot more people may have read if you would have presented it more as that instead of some end all to the shaman racial debate.
