It's still a bit curious, however, since that could easily also be a trait of half breeds. Given the nature of Lalafell, I wouldn't put it past them for Lala-hybrids to just end up looking like children of the larger races.
The more curious thing is why they would say "please look forward to future development" if they have absolutely no intention of making playable children, on a question that specifically asks whether or not they will be playable (as a race, not as children). I can't parse anything from that statement other than "a playable race that looks like that will be coming". Could be a new race for all I know, but something in that vein is probably coming down the pipe.
I think in this case, SE is trying to make an effort to show more children in the game because players kept asking about them. Do to how different the models and animations would be to scale, it's safe to assume that we likely wouldn't be getting a child option for any of the playable races for now. It'd basically count as a brand new race because they would need to make new animations.
