I don't get it.
Wouldn't orcs and goblin living underground make flying even better?
There's many actual reasons though given in the lore
The comedic implication is that the giant eagles are natural predators of goblins and, more importantly, hobbits. And might be inclined to a mid-flight snack.
Well they might easily see goblins yeah, that's probably why they hide from them.
But they're sentient and hobbits are the friends. Like I've never thought about eating a dog despite me eating pig all the time, and the difference isn't much more than between a goblin and a hobbit.
Yes, if taking it seriously, then those are reasonable conclusions. However, I think you're just overthinking it, in this context the scenario exists to service the joke rather than the other way around.
