You're totally wrong about the Tauren as well. There is a huge difference between what they are versus if they were to drop a forensically correct cow/bull head onto a humanoid body. A realistic bovine head would look totally creepy and totally wrong. It doesn't matter whether a Tauren has or ever existed. That's not the point at all. They don't look like a realistic portrayal of a minotaur, like what was featured in this last season of American Horror Story. Orcs, again, follow the same sort of cartoon design as the rest of the design ethos of WoW and Blizzard in general (ie. Starcraft is pretty consistent with WoW character design). They have smaller heads and huge muscular bodies, a design decision that generally implies the character is dim natured.
Just say you don't like it. That's not something that can't really be argued with. If you don't like it you don't like it. But don't try to say it's because of X, Y and Z if there's the possibility someone who actually knows about X, Y and Z is listening and can call "bullshit".
