That isn’t as evident as you’d think it is. While in-game they are used as default units, they largely avoided both Sylvanas’ and Garrosh’s war.

Gameplay Mechanic
This argument dismisses criticism around the story on the basis that the criticized element is a game mechanic and “isn’t real”. For this argument not to be an error, the arguer must establish how the item in question a) directly contradicts with established lore AND b) is something that absolutely had to be there in order to make the game work (that is - it’s not simply a case of a new writer overwriting the work of an old one - it was demonstrably unavoidable). The character’s UI is an example of a valid Gameplay Mechanic argument. A quest that retcons previous lore that exists to promote pet battles is not.

They were there, and they demonstrate Tauren involvement and complicity.
