I don't see you as being derogatory, SpM, but to me this implies more of 'little people' rather than hobbits. And (assuming) I would think as a whole little people would not want to be known as hobbits. It had been questioned why P.J. hadn't used little people as hobbits, like in Willow , but I don't remember what the reply was.

I haven't seen the new Charlie movie, maybe it does convey the head/body relation better.
