I like the latter, in my experience, everyone tends to forget the hereditary foes thing, and it ends up not being used anyway.

Re: Race-as-class Elf
Excellent. Do you have any ideas on what to call that ability?
Re: Race-as-class Elf
I haven't ever called it anything - it is just a sentence in some of my quickstarts. Just an example:
Elves are more likely to note secret and hidden doors and are not affected by ghoul paralysis. They get +1 to damage rolls with magic weapons. Elves can speak Elvish, Orc, Hobgoblin and Gnoll (INT 9+). The Elf F/MU can cast spells in magic armor or Elvish chain.
