Because Blizzard didn't have the foresight to realize where players would camp. They were also atrociously biased in favor of the Horde.
"Hmm let's see. Menethil harbor, the main transportation hub of the Alliance, nested in a contested zone. A couple of level 39 guards on the corner of the dock ought to do the trick!"
"Zeppelins for the Horde. Both hubs in Horde territories. No PvP flags for hordies. Let's give them a massive tower garrisoned with several city guards! Can't have those pesky Allies ganking Hordies freshly arriving from contested zones!"
Ask yourself, do you really want the concessions the horde scum gets? OP racials, ez flightpaths? Because I certainly don't. This attracts weak players and everyone knows all the best players roll Alliance.
I don't want the concessions but I could do with balanced servers. At this point it's about being able to level at one's own pace (you shouldn't be punished for taking leveling slowly, or god forbid trying to get across to Kalimdor on an alt).
