Your entire comment doesn't address the issue I raised at all, just the issues in dealing with being able to customize your appearance. Changing my appearance from a t11 or t12 BE DK...how DOES that lead one to say "one day Blizzard will give up the unique silhouettes of each race?" All transmogrification says is "one day Blizzard will let you change the appearance of your gear."

The underlying notion to this article seems to be that gear appearance=race appearance. It most certainly isn't. A Night Elf and a Blood Elf in identical gear are still obviously a NE and a BE. It's almost as if this article started with the notion "you CAN have pandaren in both factions" and worked backwards to transmogrification.
