But troll druids also emerged from isolation, didn't they? I'll admit that I don't really know the troll druid lore as well as I should, but from what I understand, it was a case of parallel evolution -- one of their loa showed them how they could channel and control druidic powers, they emerged, and the other druids went, "Huh, we...totally called that happening, and by the way you're druids, not some indigenous power structure that may or may not have anything to do with Elune, so welcome to the Cenarion Circle!" Sort of like how sunwalkers emerged, totally distinct from the traditions of the Light, yet paladinish all the same. So I don't think it would have been too much of a stretch for Blizz to go, "Yeah, these pandaren are all about the yin/yang balance of Life, and they don't even need to shapeshift for bear form, so welcome your new fuzzy druid overlords."
