If you could retcon the Burning of Teldrassil, would you?

You’re ignoring the following section.

But the Alliance will not have the strength, not in Kalimdor, not with their fleets.

After which,

“They might try to conquer the Undercity … but Darnassus becomes our hostage against that. The night elves will not allow your city to fall if they fear it means you will destroy theirs. The same goes for a strike against Silvermoon.”

You keep misunderstanding ‘killing Malfurion’ instead of seeing it as ‘Malfurion miraculously surviving’. Which causes this.

The story of Malfurion’s miraculous survival would have spread among the armies of the Alliance as proof that they were blessed in their cause.

Malfurion’s impossible survival would give them hope. Their wound would heal.

No it does not. You, again, hyper-focused on the particulars of one point of conjecture meant to be years down the road. It does not depend on that.

It required a wound. A wound his death prevented, according to them. They say this repeated times.

You can indulge in your headcanon all you like, Amadis. It hasn’t convinced me. And you can still be ashamed, victimize, and push yourself for things you legitimately are to blame for. Because it was the same plan the entire time.

Original plan.

Same plan.

Still the same plan.

And, same plan.
