It's a lot deeper than that - although I do admit halflings have greatly diminished in power.

They really get a lot of routes to good equipment throughout the server (bull crusher is astounding on day 1, it's never hard to find dwarf cultural, etc), faction work isn't terribly easy but hide and sneak both help and have further uses pre infinite invis clicks, they are generally pretty well received by other players (people seem to be much kinder to halflings than other races - but iksars do tend to stick together and help each other a lot. They can be RZ which helps in Velious (iksar are stuck with CT). Sure these don't help so much at end game, but they make it easier and faster to get there.

Honestly, I think the fact that players are more amiable and accommodating to halfling avatars than ogres is a good enough reason halfling is better than ogre. Warriors need friends to accomplish their goals and endearing halflings are just better for that.
