It doesn't have to be metagame, but conversely, the setting doesn't seem to support it; Lalafell don't seem to be treated as cute little snuggly things by NPCs, so it doesn't seem logical that PCs would do so when the NPCs largely don't. In absence of setting support and with the evidence of it being a metagame behavior in other games, it's easy to assume that it's a metagame behavior here, too.
That's not to say that there aren't Lalafell who fall into the stereotype, just that they'd be relatively rare and PCs of other races wouldn't hold that stereotype.
