That still doesn’t show all the races. Besides, I can show you plenty of images in game, you know, the thing that matters… where alliance high elves are working with the alliance.

Except both South and North Korea are actual nations numbering in the millions, even during their inception.
It’s not North Korea vs a group of Korean exiles that barely fit a room.
Look, it doesn’t matter. They are pirates. They aren’t an affiliated race, just a band of ruffians. They aren’t trying to join in with a faction and create their own standing with them.
If the divide stays, the high elf population would grow, and eventually, they’d have their own civilization separated from the blood elves.
Ok, change my Blood Elf into a Goblin Looking Elf. I’ll still be this.
i would love to see your selfies with the kirin tor or vacation in dalaran
That would require having to ignore the notoriously low birth rate of elves as well as the high elves’ penchant for preferring humans over their own, though.
Also WoW hasn’t done a real time skip in ages. And you’re arguing for high elves now, not after a time skip.
So what you’re aying is, damn the lore, I want my 10 high elves playable now.

There’s literally a portal trainer in Stormwind that’s a high elf.

This is not an even remotely close split. It is 90-10.
This is China and the Chinese population of San Fransisco.
In thousands of years they’d still make up a tiny fraction of the numbers.

keep going name all the ones in stormwind and on azeroth your half way there why stop
Yeah we’d be more likely to get half elves what with all the human potential running around.

There’s more than 10 elves. There are hundreds affiliated with the alliance. Low birth rates be damned, eventually they would get there. The whole point is that they are trying to start their own civilization that is separated from the horde and the blood elves. You don’t need to already be in that stage of them having their civilization for them to be playable (See Void elves)
In thousands of years high elves won’t exist. They are a minority in humans without their own lands. They are effectively condemned to be slowly integrated into the human population until eventually humans will be absolutely shocked to find out they got 1% high elf on their Ancestry DNA testm

Agreed, I suppose that’s one of the few cases Alliance won’t be happy with Human Potential. 
What civilization building is there? The same hunting lodge with a dozen guards in the Hinterlands, and a neutral population happy to be divorced from conflict living in Dalaran?
I’m sorry but I’m not counting your 1 portal trainer as a viable diaspora population in Stormwind.

It’s their typical dishonest derailing tactics, notice the silence in the room from the supposedly mature antis.
And here comes the headcannon 
Why are we arguing about population sizes?

Well, anything in the future is headcanon, because nobody can say what the future may hold. We don’t know what will happen in a thousand years time, maybe there will more more High Elves, maybe they all died off. We really don’t know.
There’s just many in the background. They are there, just storywise they haven’t been fleshed out. But you see them stationed in 7th legion armies and some resting in their own camp. And yeah, the silver covenant aren’t exactly what I’d call neutral. You all like to throw that around but if the alliance came calling they would absolutely fight for them. They have before even when Dalaran was Neutral. They with Jaina staged a coup in Dalaran to go and kill the blood elves residing there. This was before Jaina became the leader of the Kirin tor. In fact, this coup she appointed herself leader of the kirin tor after taking dalaran. So, Dalaran was neutral, but the silver covenant proved they are not neutral.
oh no, you don’t understand. grabbag knows.
What do you think happened to the Neanderthals? They were absorbed by the larger group.
Every time a high elf has a kid with a human they get one step closer to extinction as a distinct group.
