Here, I'll end the debate right now.
If you want to get your build on a little bit faster than the rest of the races...pick Human. They'll get you there.
If you want a host of other very good abilities that is likely cumulatively better than what a human gets but puts you one feat behind and one skill short, then pick another race.

But if we don't disscus it, how do we not get them to fix it in the errata???
They are down at least 1 feat of choice equivolent in power to other races.
They need 3 trait like abilities now to even them with the half elf.
So at this point I would actuallu suggest that we add both the skill of choice and the "Ambition: Humans gain both a skill point and hit point for each level they take in their favorite class." abilities.
That actually would perfectly balanc them with the half elves by my calculations as the skil point of choice, for a race, would be equal to a feat due to its adaptability, and the Ambition is totatly select and conditionairy.

I do not like this, it basically gives Humans +2 skill points per level in 90% of cases. Almost everyone will play humans for single class build or single class +prestige.

Hmm, you mean like most people will play the half-elf for a multiclass characters so they can get their favored class perks 90% of the time? Or the large number of people that will pick Elf for a wizard character if they don't plan on going into a PRC with a lot of Feat requirements?
I still like the idea because it gives the human race something they excel at... focusing on one class objective.
Our group compromised and made the Ambition ability into a racial trait that the player can choose to take at 1st level. Each character can choose two traits and 1 occupation (from Tome of Secrets). Still not my ideal situation... but at least it gives the Humans something even if they have to use a trait.
