I don't think Half Elf is that bad, you're -15 Wisdom compared to a Human but I could see preferring Infravision to that if you're truly starting with nothing. Being blind in the dark can suck if you're not surrounded by a bunch of other people in the same boat.
Dwarf is easily the best stats if you don't care about Charisma, like for example planning to play with an Enchanter friend who will already pump that stat and do the Lulling, while you focus on maxing your other abilities. Really in general if you put +20 Charisma into a Dwarf when starting, your overall stats are better than any other race.
I don't like Erudite from a non-aesthetics standpoint. -30 physical stats compared to a Human with the only upside being +5 magic resist.
Strength is the most important if not raiding IMO, you do more damage, which is always good, and being able to carry more means you make more money.
Crit fail can always happen on lull.

Irrelevant may have been too strong a word. Strength always helps, and crit lulls can always fail, but having a mob die faster on a pally cause you have more strength just felt different to me than other classes. You heal so fast once the fight is over, it was always more about getting singles in camp. A crit lull and a death, or a camp out and reset seemed to set me back more than an extra strength having a mob die faster. Plus DS pots will make up a pretty decent amount of your damage at higher level.
