Cynyc indeed makes me feel better.
I don’t get it 
Like, to be clear, “high elves” are extinct.
If you don’t know that, it’s not my fault you don’t know the lore, lol.
The Silver Covenant is a faction of high elves yet active in modern Azeroth.
Quel’dorei - “high elves” - are not extinct.

Let me rephrase. They’re “all but extinct”.
They’re an extremely small and effectively irrelevant faction that has no chance of being incorporated as a formal race in WoW.
Just reading any of Aco’s post make me cringe. All they do is argue and complain with other people and I’ve I’ve browsed the forums for only 3 days. Definitely one to avoid conversation with.

It’s hilarious, I mean first they said that tan skin colors would never be added, and then they said that natural hair colors would never be added, and they still have the audacity to think something will “never” happen. How big does your ego need to be?

They are still VOID elves…mate
Who’s “they” and who’s “your”?
Oh please, the void elves are an “elite group/research group” if anything there are probably less void elves the high elves. Also, Warcraft has never cared about population numbers otherwise most races in WoW should be extinct.

night elves
void elves
blood elves

Think they’re gonna add another “elf” race?
Correct.
As you said and what many people fail to see, is that The Silver Covenant is a sub-branch of the Kirin’tor, much like the Sunreavers. They are not allowed to act in conflicts between Horde and Alliance without the Kirin’tor council members’ authorization, nor in any conflict outside of that, but the Kirin’tor are more than happy to help with conflict involving third party dangers, such as the Scourge, the Legion, and Vereesa was probably allowed to go and provide aid against the Amani.
We see that in Tides of War, when Jaina requested reinforcement from the Kirin’tor, the council members had to vote and come to an agreement before being allowed to send even a Sunreaver to aid in the defense of Theramore - Aethas did not, despite being a council member and the leader of the Sunreavers, have authorization to just send a Sunreaver to aid in Theramore’s defense.
And as mentioned, the same goes for The Silver Covenant. The Silver Covenant is in favor of the Alliance, but they are not an Alliance organisation, they are a Kirin’tor organisation.

To my knowledge they are physiologically the same as blood elves, the only difference 'twixt the two is political. Really, any blood elf can, at the turn of theyr opinions, be an high elf, and 'tis hardly unfathomable that an high elf that joineth the ren’dorei cause may theyr appearance retaineth until they are able to reconstruct properly what befell them in the rift, perchance even after if they so chose.
A cosmetic difference, sensical given the present state of the game, but one far from unreasoned. I care not what others wish to pretend they are playing, though, for it affecteth me none.
If you’re talking role-play, sure.
Call yourself whatever you want.
But to create a “high elf” race means racials and likely introductory storylines.
Think blizzard’s gonna do that?
I will easily stand by this statement
You know what else is cringe? Bashing people in a public setting without addressing them directly.
Why don’t you either shut your mouth or address me directly like a man. Thanks
They are not beholden to the Kirin Tor anymore then any Alliance/Horde living in the city. Don’t forget, we literally had a portal to Wintergrasp in the middle of Sunreaver/Silver Enclave. As an example:
Shortly before the end of the Fourth War, Vereesa and the Silver Covenant participated in the events of the battle at the Gates of Orgrimmar, as high elven ballistae were present during the conflict to support the Alliance in front of the gates of Orgrimmar.
Most of the high elf mages in the 7th Legion are faction-tagged as part of the Silver Covenant.
Since the battlemasters of Wintergrasp were members of the Covenant, the group may have led the efforts of the Alliance to take the battleground.

There were unmanned ballista and NO SC elves other than a silent Vereesa.

Mine answer is hither well intimated, methinks:
Extrapolated, the present state of the game being that there are already two races with the same skeletal shape and model, thus a third is needless, hence the implied statement that the difference is only a cosmetic one.
'Tis easy, though, for one to read ill 'twixt the lines of aught that even scantly grateth against theyr opinions when they have too deeply inured themselves into a discussion, so this I forgive.

In reality, I understand what you’re saying, but I’m confident in the assumption that a grand majority of people don’t, or don’t care to put in the effort to interpret it.
I don’t consider myself “inured”. I just thought I’d address you since you seem to be a reasonable third party. I also took a moment to translate your words into modern English. I get you have your own thing going here, but sometimes a bit of translation is necessary.
