Yes, the model was based off it … That’s what I’m saying the similarity is.
Henceforth the relevence isn’t “completely null” otherwise they wouldn’t have had it named as Minotaur in the first place, when they first introduced them.
Relevance quite legitimately means: The quality or state of being connected or appropriate. Given that the Tauren and Minotaur are essentially identical in models and “look alike” along with once having shared the same name when introduced to the Warcraft universe before they ultimately named it to something else, to say they share relevance is factual.
