Thursday Blizzard added two new items to the Blizzard store, including the Celestial Steed. By the many threads on several of the official forums you would have though the end of the world was nigh. Many were outraged that Blizzard would dare sell something that was actually usable, such as a mount whereas most agreed that non-combat pets were just fine. I personally don't have any problem with what Blizzard did. After all, the mount gives you no advantage over anyone else in the game and it's not needed in any way. Thus it comes to down to personal choice. If you want the mount you have an option to buy it. If you don't want the mount, no one is making you.
