I used to think like you. What on earth is that motorcycle doing flying around, or worse, why is there an elephant in the sky? In the end, I guess I just got used to it and do not think about it anymore.

The fact is that not introducing new mounts that have no business flying will not alter the reality that we already have so many flightless mounts that can fly, and they are not going anywhere. They will still be there flying as they have always been even if we only introduce mounts that can logically fly from now on.

My personal opinion - and no one needs to agree with me - is that they should have handled flight completely differently. Flight should not be so much faster than riding - in fact it should be the same speed. And the heights you can fly should be limited. This, of course, would not apply to any map that is purposedly built for flying, such as the Sea of Clouds, Churning Mists, etc.

Only then we could have mounts that do not fly, since there would not be a very significant difference between riding and flying.

But the way it is now, there is no turning back.
