Fair, but that can go for anything.

And look at stuff like the Fenrir or the Tank achievement mounts (lion, bear, etc) which have no explanation for flying, they just kinda do. We have giant cards and gazelles that fly through the sky effortlessly. While Fat Chocos have wings, it's hard to believe any amount of cake motivation would turn that willpower into flight, and how does the gobbule fly? The wolf? The snowman?

While I DO love more lore-reasons/mechanical explanations for why they're able to fly, there are a lot of mounts that just require suspension of disbelief.
