Orc: Health Recovery or Speed?

With the currently proposed racial changes, Orcs will lose their Health Recovery bonus, while Khajiit will retain a minimum value.
However, lore-wise the idea of Health Recovery seems more fitting for the Orc race than a speed buff. Orcs are large, resilient creatures that can take and deal a lot of damage. Health, Health Recovery, Resistances, Damage, Stamina, Stamina Recovery are all attributes I would associate with an Orc, but not speed.
How does the community feel about this?

A possible solution could be to remove the Speed Buff from Orcs, give a smaller one to the Khajiit, and add a massive Health Recovery bonus to Orcs again.

✭✭✭✭✭Yes, Speed feels like a more fitting bonus for an OrcHealth recovery while gone you still have a way to gain back health and now stamina too. This gives new build options but doesn't necessarily destroy old ones.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭No, Health Recovery feels like a more fitting bonus for an OrcOrcs are literally the slowest race in all of Tamriel (judging by their Speed bonuses in Morrowind and Oblivion - Skyrim doesn't have attributes, and Orcs weren't playable before then). The speed buff never made any bit of sense for them.
This is why I proposed to remove their sprint bonuses, and instead increase the health gain from Unflinching and their attribute stats to at least 1000 health and stamina.

✭✭✭✭✭Yes, Speed feels like a more fitting bonus for an OrcWhile I agree health recovery seems more lore-appropriate, I'd rather have a speed buff."If a person is truly desirous of something, perhaps being set on fire does not seem so bad."0 -
Latios✭✭✭✭✭Yes, Speed feels like a more fitting bonus for an OrcIt still has higher healing received and an indirect health recovery passive. Speed is important to give the class a unique flavor.The Eon Pokémon.0
