I guess I also have more tolerance for allowing stories to change and evolve over time, especially when it comes to video game stories that, like too many action movies, are usually written on the fly to form an excuse for the action and gameplay. Stories and even histories evolve over time, depending on who tells the tale and what is known by the teller at the time.
I'd be interested in reading your comments down in the shaman talents thread. Rereading your comments there, I don't see any criticisms of this calibre, so perhaps you can elaborate there. My take on the shaman review is that it's an improvement overall but that the review could have done a lot more.

The real problem is though Mongo...the old lore is in game right now. Go into the Library of Scarlet Monastery sometime and look for some of the books. Look specifically for books that talk about the titans and burning crusade (their titles will mention this) and read through them. The lore present in game is being contradicted by this drivel that Blizzard is using to make the Draeni what they are.
The other major problem is now their is going to be a worse population imbalance than before. Take a look at the Blizzard forums and the number of Horde players saying they're going to switch to Alliance now, and how many high level characters they are giving up, to play Draeni. If Blizzard wanted to fix the population imbalance, they have a very strange way of doing so.
