Elves, generally, are crap. Their armor values are lackluster, and cannot compare to a standard Uruk, sword-to-sword, and their hp cannot compensate in above matchups, although, take note that Uruks with pikes, daggers, warhammers, or battle axes will lose, winning only if they have a cleaver.

Uruk-hai are the most cost-effective troops. They have similar armor values to dwarves (or the same). Their slightly higher hp than men, and their slightly stronger armor than men's, makes a deadly combination that makes them trade effectively against any other unit in the mod. Hah! that won't last for long with Ithilion's crusade to end the OPness of Uruk-hai.

Well, he's been crusading for chainmail and it still hasn't been added so... I wouldn’t say that. Of course some factions like Durin’s Folk obviously use plate armour, but chain mail has been added for many factions. See Rohirric Armour, Galadhrim Armour, Dalish Armour, Ranger Armour, Mordor Armour, Angmar Armour, Wood-elven Armour, Rhûnic Armour, Haradric Armour, and even Mithril Armour are some of the many that make prominent use of chain mail in the texture. It may not be exclusively chain armour, but the style is quite prominent.
