Why do dock guards do nothing?

Talking about the “armies” situated around the Arathi / Darkshore mission table for both Horde and Alliance.

I log into my Horde Character, which was logged out on the mission table on the boat, to be instantly killed by an Alliance raid.

Now I have no problem with that, but why do we have entire armies just standing there, not able to be agro’d, with hostile players running through them with no consequence?

Shouldn’t these NPC’s agro and start attacking? Otherwise what’s the point in them apart from aesthetics?

They only attack if we cross on to the actual boat itself, meaning you can be hit by ranged and the guards just watch

they are grunts …not the sharpest knive’s in the draw ,(they are most probably Spoons )

They are probably sleeping on the job…
