Which race for Shadow Priest going into WotLK?

Hiyas, I want to level a shadow priest for fun and leveling in tbc and have him ready for some serious arenas climbing in WotLK. I started maining shadow priest late in retail, so I want to try out how my favorite spec worked back in the day.

The question is, which race I should make him? Is it all going to be about humans in wotlk thanks to EMFH? I don’t mind playing a human, I actually preffer it, but isn’t Nelf going to be more op when they say that Shadowmeld will drop combat now like in retail, so we can dodge coil and other spells with it? Or is dwarf still going to be best pick for priest in general?

I guess undead is loosing some value due to wotf nerf and DP being base line for everybody, correct?

Pretty much
DPS - human if applicable
Healer - dwarf if applicable

Even if Shadowmeld dropped combat, that’s still not enough to justify lose of second trinket. EMFH might not be as strong as advised in P1 and P2 (guessing this will be Ulduar), but once P3 and P4 are opened it is becoming a no-brainer choice.
