Those "few moments" are the most important fights in many Shaman's lives.
When you are level 60 with Torpor, and you want to solo something beefy (like say some Velious content), regen barely helps, but front stun immunity does.
Since "level 60 with Torpor soloing baddass stuff" is the pinnacle of many Shaman's aspirations, Ogre is popular because at that very end stage the Ogre racial is useful and the Troll/Iksar racial isn't. It has nothing to do with which one can be used more often, and everything to do with having the most useful ability at the "pinnacle" moments.
Now, personally I don't buy that argument (as evidenced by my polar bear hat), but I'm just saying, you can't dismiss Ogre as being about "a few moments" because there's a huge difference between the easy fight against a blue when you are leveling and the insanely hard fight that you do at the very end of your career.

You dismissed my advice to not base your choice on a "few moments" by citing an incredibly unlikely endgame for almost all people who would be asking themselves which race shaman to be.
Pick your class based on leveling to 60, buying a spell for 100k plat, and raiding the gear to get you to a point where your stun immunity advantage gives you a special achievement text in a video game OOOOOOORRRRRR you can regen a bunch of HPs 100% of the time you play no matter what you end up doing.
