Zor,
Every culture has its thieves, (they just occupy differing levels in society) so allowing Half Orcs reflects that. Don't racial modifiers normally reflect what you're talking about? Eg. size = lower hide in shadows rating.
Are Half Orcs penalised as thieves in BG2? I haven't read the manual concerning that answer.
Maybe his Orcish mother married a really weedy but nimble small human and he's taken after his father!
