"So much so that their racial leaders both pilot mech suits"
And thats the key for me. Gnomes/Goblins stomping around in mechanical suits with miniguns, flamethrowers, rocket boots and rocket pods on them is not common place at all except for a few tiny parts of the story plus the racial leaders.
In the same way anduin can mess res an entire army, that a player paladin cannot, or Arthas/Lich King can possess powers other DK's cannot, or Guldan is immensely powerful compared to a normal Warlock, what makes these racial leaders stand out as powerful is that they are in possession of their races/civilisations best and brightest creations, I dont see how all the other gnomes should be able to be in possession of giant mechanosuits.
I dont want to walk into stormwind and see an army of mechanical monsters, it isnt right for the theme of the game in my opinion.
I dont see how they can make it fit without doing this, and thats why I dont agree with it.
