Earth Is Space Australia

There's a trope I rather like in SF, which a reverse of the usual "all aliens are superior" thing. It isn't that humans are superior as such, but that humans are better at surviving - because the planet Sol III is a hellhole, a DeathworldSuch extremes of temperature, of landscape, of flora and fauna! How could any being survive it

This fits into the "Humans are Space Orcs" variety, I think.
