Cross-Faction Que. Why Not?

An Alliance friend and I want to play thundercleave together so I’ve been grinding gear and renown on a second shaman. While I was doing this, I thought to myself why is this even necessary? Why, in 2021, can I not just play with my friends?

Obviously it isn’t a technical reason because we already have mercenary mode. The only things I can think of are:

  1. Blizzard is too lazy or cheap to make the changes needed.
  2. Blizzard is too greedy because they want people to pay them for faction transfers (I’ve been tempted to do this more than once while gearing my second shaman).
  3. Blizzard are listening to the people who mistakenly think that there is a lore reason Alliance and Horde should be separated (there isn’t; characters from different factions have fought together).

Am I missing something?
