Since then they've just trashed perfectly good races to boost the horde up rather than do a sensible move like just get the night elves, leave a group of young night elves in it and develop up them separately.
It's like the Nightborne, Elisande would have made a far more powerful leader than Thalyssra who face it feels a lot more like an alliance night elf character than she does a horde leader, ELisande on the other hand, is very powerful, and the echoes give us a way to recover and make a powerful horde leader. Can you imagine if it was Elisande rescuing Princess Talanji from Stormwind, the confrontation with Jaina would have been different, or they'd have had to use Valtrois instead.
likewise, t he Lich king is the ruler of the undead, he is powerful figure even after being nerfed by Sylvanas, and we know Sylvanas' new power is not really her own anyway, and I'm sorry, she is an undead elf, doesn't really fit with a human faction, even though we've accepted it, time for her to go lead a faction of undead elves and let Bolvar take over, giving the horde a powerful racial leader. Sylvanas can return as an allied race leader for the San'layn /Darkfallen.
I don't see why it can't be meaningful, and it comes across s cool to me, I'd love a far more powerful undead race with the sturcutre changing.. with his diminished power, he can still control mindless, but powerful enough Liches can have their own factions of undead allowing us to have undead squabbles and minions to attack not necessarily player faction ones. There is so much you can do.. just be creative.

He is undead and the ruler of the undead, how on Azeroth does him not leading the undead not make sense. How can he be in the alliance like he is? Come on dude.
It's like that guy who thinks it make zero sense, but it's the opposite, how can the undead ruler of the dmaned be an alliance member? The faction hate undead even if the odd individual in it can see past their state. Also if there is no alliance undead faction? Again, here we go with perception problem. They still perceive him as alliance because of his roots and failing to factor in he is now undead. Do they have to actually draw the picture to connect the dots? Why do people on video game forums only process visual information but not the whole of the information that should order their perception.
