Devs specifically state that its a modified Darkspear model for both male and female PC Zandalari. I’m too tired to bring the interview up again. It was a lost codex interview though.
As I already mentioned, there’s a sethrak in Maldraxxus.
You could also make the argument that the creatures of the afterlife would have no business or interest in joining our small factions, of just one world.
Also, there’s no one saying that races have to be from current content.
They could decide to add Taunka, Ogres, or Hozen maybe, races that are already close to or inside the Horde already.
Blizzard really could add any race at any time if they so desired as they’re the ones that make the story. This is just a suggestion.
