Pixies are unique among things with LA+4 in that they only have one hit die, so they benifit from the easily overlooked line that "Creatures with 1 or less HD replace their monster levels with their character levels" and players don't have to worry about their ECL being clogged with a bunch of worthless bullshit monster levels. Flight, small size, natural greater invisibility, and a decent array of Spell-Like Abilities on top of high ability scores are actually worth +4 LA in some instances, and they'd make badass rangers or rogues.
