Just my 2 gil anyways.
We all need to remember that. Final Fantasy is not the real world, and doesn't work like the real world. It's a story. It's a fantasy reality.
Remember D&D? Half Elves, Half Orcs.. LOTR? Same thing, really.. they look just peachy fine to me. Health-wise and everything.
Let's not dig too deep into comparing our real world with different ones, shall we? Interbreeding isn't that big of a deal like it is IRL.
Races in fantasy worlds are more akin to human races IRL. Not different species. I know they seem more like different species from a grounded view. But again, this is a fantasy world. We aren't supposed to be completely grounded on it.
I promise you if SE made a character that is officially a half breed, he won't be an abomination baby.
