Just want to make it clear that my Ninja example was supposed to be in jest. 
Either way, until there are examples that show otherwise, I'll be sticking with the idea that Lalafell can stand toe to toe with the other races.
If you're quick to disregard the twin Lalafell Miners, I'll bring up Chuchuto and her friend from the Pugilist storyline. Several times Chuchuto fights alone and/or alongside others but holds her own against Midlanders and Highlanders. She even defeats quite a few, these being from the Alacran, a criminal organisation that are trained to kill.
She doesn't use claws, either. Just cesti. There would need to be some strength behind those punches for those to have a decent enough effect where she holds her own.
Edit for Enteris: The dev team have already said that the inter-dimensional things such as Lightning and Shantotto are canon. They've also said they'll be exploring this in the future more. Just because you don't agree with some of the lore doesn't mean it isn't actually there.
