Don't look for holes when there aren't any. I'm not talking about the Pandaren race as a whole. I'm talking about playable Pandaren who do in fact choose sides. Since both Factions have their own sub faction of playable Pandas, the race is then defined as "neutral" for mechanical game play purposes. Which ultimately, by WoW race standards, would mean the same for belves and helves.
Once again read my long post last page.
