This is the big sin about the Alliance, their inborn evil: They're Bigots.
Whether it's Azshara painting all Nightborn as traitorous cowards because their leaders locked them away for 10,000 years, or Varian screaming about how all "Green Abominations" should be eradicated, or Genn building a wall and ending his Alliance with the other human kingdoms because they decided -not- to kill innocent children.
And even those characters built around the core identity of being unbiased, or unbigoted at least, like Jaina, eventually turn to that broad brush and start painting.
The Horde's sins are more varied, and generally apply to one or two member-races of the Horde. But the Alliance typically uses the one.
When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like injustice.
The Nighthold being the only zone under their control and being friendly means that the government is with the Horde. It is only a matter of time untill all of Suramar is under their rule. It is not like whoever controls the rest has any outside support, unlike the Horde's nightborne.
I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard removes the Suramar/Highmountain stuff next PTR update, because it totally clashses with their "B-B-B-BUT ALLIED RACES AREN'T 7.3.5 YOU GUYS!!" narrative.
the nightborne tattoos are amazing.
Formerly known as Arafal
Mok'nathal more likely than the Ogres, there. Ogres, after all, still use a fully custom rig. They're more a full-race thing. But they definitely could base Mok'nathal off the new upright orc model and add more ogre features. Hell, that could look quite cool, expanding on their appearances with random ogre features, tattoos. Nice idea, I hope Blizzard keeps it in mind for future allied races.
The only allied race that I can't wrap my mind around is the Dark Iron Dwarves. It's so out of nowhere, it's not even funny.

That's one of the reasons. The other one is, that they came out of nowhere. Every other allied race has either been helping us in the recent past, or is going to play a big role in the future.
Also, they don't seem to fit the theme of Kul'Tiras at all. A Zandalari troll on Zandalar is a no brainer. But why the Dark Irons as their counter parts of all the races is beyond me.
Every single orc put in those camps were war criminals, the Gilneans right, they should have been executed. Instead the alliance let them breed creating an unneeded ethical dilema because Lordareon needed slave labor I guess.
The decision to build the wall was the right one, and Genn was right to trust his advisors, well, until the whole worgen debacle.
