well, for an example, why should all dwarves be strong and stout? that sort of thing.

'Cause all the tall, skinny ones with glasses got laughed at and beat up?  I agree with that point, as long as neither extreme is pushed (neither "All dwarves are like such and such" nor "There are no characteristics which are statistically identifiable as 'dwarvish/dwarfish.'") It would make sense that some characteristics would be shared throughout a race, just as much as they would be among families. And dwarves would be more distinguishable to each other than to other races (again, speaking in generalities).
