You high elf fans would make great warhammer dwarves with the way you hold onto grudges for eternity.
Another question: why didn't the Blood Elves use their brainwashing techniques to the High Elves? It was so effective in the Bazaar, why didn't they sneak some Priest Police into the Quel'danil and Quel'lithien and make the High Elves there become loyal to Lor'themar again? Why didn't they send them during the Purge of Dalaran?

Pretty much this. Just another absurd hypothetical to make pale skin elves available to the alliance.

Alleria is addicted to human potential, she never was going to be Horde. Vareesa, some would say the head figure of the high elves, was willing to join the Horde during Garrosh's trial. The only thing that stopped her was her children, not the alliance, not dalaran.
There's no doubt whatsoever that any hypothetically resurrected high elves would naturally join their blood elf kin. But as Obelisk Kai put it, this hypothetical is moot because there is no rational story that would have such a thing happen. And the fact that some would even consider it an option to make playable alliance high elves is further evident that some high elfers are purely coveting the aesthetic and have no appreciation for lore. Well in reality most "high elfers" have a limited appreciation for lore as is evidenced by their negligence to the fact the blood elves are our high elves and are the continuation of the high elf arc in the WoW universe.

When they learn of the humans attempting to execute them I highly doubt they'd want anything to do with the Alliance. They'd 100% promptly rejoin their kin in Silvermoon city

I'll take "ways to make the opposition not take you seriously" for $400.
And the blood elves were going to join the Alliance right before the Divine Bell incident. The only think that stopped them was circumstances beyond their control. It wasn't love of the Horde, or hate for the Alliance.Vareesa, some would say the head figure of the high elves, was willing to join the Horde during Garrosh's trial. The only thing that stopped her was her children, not the alliance, not dalaran.
It was precisely hate for the Alliance. Thank Jaina for that.
On the other hand, it wasn't even the Horde that prevented Vareesa from joining Sylvanas, or her "love" for the Alliance.. it was purely her two kids.
Lorthermar at least was trying to put his people's best interest at heart, and at the time Garrosh (leader) of the Horde was driving them away. They soon realised though that Garrosh did not represent the Horde and Lorthermar to this day happily allies with the Horde. Vareesa again on the otherhand showed no care for her "people" or the Alliance, and was willing to ditch them all if it wasn't for her kids.

I think it was also because she was kicked out; like she was called an "exile" as if it was a racial slur by the Blood Elven Farstriders

that was Garithos who is most likely not recognized nor claimed by the rest of the Alliance of Lordaeron; that's like saying the Darkspears would've 100% moved to the Alliance after Garrosh's extreme racism towards them.

first they need to stop being xenophobic to the undead that literally wiped out their population like the humans did, and get over the orcs/trolls/ogres. Maybe not most but maybe half would be Blood Elves and half would be Alliance bootlickers

That's not it, the priest and the ranger also didn't like the idea of joining Horde but they suddenly said death to Alliance. It's going to be really that effective towards the Alliance bootlickers, I know it. Unless it has a limited time duration

I love the wording, as it heavily implies that this "so-called realization" is what made Lor'themar change his mind and not leave the Horde. And I know this wording isn't incidental, because you did the same just below.
Other than supporting them during Wrath. And I love how you completely ignore how Veressa was suffering and feeling alone after the death of her husband, that she was desperate enough to seek a semblance of 'family' with Sylvanas, and yet word your sentence in a specific way to make Vereesa look like she has no allegiances and can switch allies at the drop of a hat.Vareesa again on the otherhand showed no care for her "people" or the Alliance, and was willing to ditch them all if it wasn't for her kids.
If Garithos is not recognized or claimed by the rest of the Alliance then it's fair to say that the Horde don't recognize nor claim to be the Horde of the 1st and 2nd wars. In which case, any hypotethically resurrected high elves would still likely flock to their blood elf kin who are allied with a new horde who do not claim to be the horde of past.

I mean, we all know that Thrall's Horde is different from the Old Horde and some noisy minority keeps on pushing otherwise.
Maybe half or 60% would join, given that first they need to realize that the undead are not the Scourge, the orcs are no longer demons, etc. to avoid them suddenly killing their emissaries like the Stormwindians/Stromics/Dwarves did

I doubt the Horde would accept her after she practically cockblocked the Blood Elves into being accepted into the Kirin Tor and she and her High Elves killed more Sunreavers than Jaina did.

Why would she feel so alone if the Alliance is supposedly so dear to her? Alas, she did not view the Alliance as dear enough to feel like home or family.. hence why she sought a semblance of family with her dead Horde sister. She musn't have had that strong of a connection with the Alliance if she was prepared to live with the undead in an undead city who are allied to the Horde, rather than stay. Like I said, were it not for her children then the most prominent alliance high elf figure would have 'yeeted' out of the Alliance and joined the Horde.
ANd regarding Lorthermar, he realized that Garrosh did not represent the Horde.. else he would have removed the blood elves from the Horde AND rejected the Alliance once more. Alas, he only did the latter, indicating that his realization of the Horde is what kept the blood elves there. And in all this, Vareesa never had any realization about the Alliance that kept her from joining the Horde... no, it was purely her two kids.

Just come up with new lore for Void Elves being able to be Paladins.
Introduce Wrathion's model for Humans (rightfully so a step in the right direction Blizzard).
Or allow lore to progress that Void Elves and High Elves intermingle and within that one slot one can be a High Elf Paladin through the extra customization and lore given to Void Elves.
Same as is being done with Wildhammer Dwarves. Bronzebeard got the class first (Shaman). Then came the looks (Wildhammer). Doesn't take up a slot so no having to say 'It WaStEs A pOtEnTiAl Nu RaEcE lIk MeChAgNoMeS!!11!1ElEvEn!'

All methods that I would approve of.
she also seems to hate the Horde as she tried to murder Rommath and was only stopped by a human

And Druids too, the High Elves had druids in WC2. Void Druids would be sick af.
I'm thinking the closest Alliance Thalassians would be a conglomeration with the High Elves led by Vereesa Windrunner, Void Elves led by Umbric, Highborne led by Mordent Evershade - all led by Alleria Windrunner. Then their capital would be Eldre'thalas with a nearby Spire for the Void Rift.
Light skin customization, Paladin and Druid class, with those we may no longer need a High Elf Allied Race and use the slot instead for Lightbound Orc
