If you're not concerned about stats and just want to go for aesthetics or whatever, then pick whatever you want, but you mentioned missing the Draenei hit racial (which still exists, which is why you don't need 2550 hit to cap, like everyone else does), so I figure that's what's important to you. Keep in mind after MoP release GC said they want to add more combat racials to the races currently missing them. Similar to what they did for Undead with Touch of the Grave. So 'best in the long run' can change in 5.2 for all we know. Whenever they get around to adding them. At the end of the day, it's your choice.
