I honestly don't get the hang-up. I mean, I could see it if this game were based at all on realistic fiction, but it's not. It's Final Fantasy. It's anime fantasy at the absolute best. Watching a little girl punch a huge buff dude and he rolls backwards into a wall isn't that uncommon in this genre. I understand the want for realism, but looking for it in Final Fantasy? You're gonna have a bad time.
Even then, there are so many examples of "short" strong races. Dwarves aren't always portrayed as muscle-bound, but the label nearly always removes any doubt of strength. Halfling fighters aren't unheard of. Nobody raises their eyebrows at gnome warriors.
I'm going to take a "strong Lalafell" way more seriously than I take "mary-jane whitemage" any day of the week.
Ants are super strong. Why not just think of them like big, humanoid ants.
