I wish the ring had never come to me.  I wish none of this had happened.           So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide.  All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us

You: Gandalf looks like a human because humans are the most common people in middle earth when he arrives.

Me (an intellectual): Gandalf and the other Istari were designed to look like a blend of the major peoples, which is why they’re bearded, agelessly wise immortals shorter than the average human but taller than most dwarves and hobbits. It is never clarified if they have ears. It just so happens that this reads as human.

I appreciate that you didn't say "we don't know what their ear shape isnlike" but rather "we don't know if they HAVE ears" that's thorough.

Arwen, daughter of Elrond, in whom it was said that the likeness of Lúthien had come on earth again; and she was called Undómiel, for she was the Evenstar of her people.
