Isn’t this being fixed in the next patch?

PTR Patch Notes - WoW Classic Version 1.13.5

Alterac Valley Updates
This patch includes many bugfixes for issues found in the 1.12 version of World of Warcraft. These were issues that were clearly unintended by the design of the time, and are now fixed:

Terrain exploits

You can no longer climb the waterfall and enter the Frostwolf base near the Relief Hut.

You can no longer climb the cliff and enter Dun Baldar near the Aid Station.

You can no longer bypass Icewing Bunker.

Reputation inconsistencies between Alliance and Horde

Alliance now always receive Reputation and Honor for defeating Captain Galvangar, regardless of whether Captain Balinda Stonehearth is alive.

Developers’ notes: This now correctly mirrors the Horde behavior, which grants them Reputation and Honor for defeating Captain Balinda Stonehearth, regardless of Galvangar’s status.

Alliance Druids can no longer have their actions disrupted by talking to them.

Developers’ notes: This now correctly mirrors the behavior of the Horde Elementalists, who were already just as steadfast in executing their intended actions.

Exploits for defeating the enemy general.

The Horde War Masters can no longer be kited far enough to allow General Drek’thar to be engaged and defeated alone.

The Alliance Prospector can no longer be tricked into pulling General Vandar Stormpike out of the bunker so that he can be defeated alone.

Developers’ notes: As always, our intention is to accurately represent the 1.12 design intent of the game, and these bugs are clear examples of behaviors that were never intended.

Thank you so much for posting this! I was worried Blizz would just ignore it.
