To be fair Berenal, we don't know if Stormwind City didn't have a harbour post second war. The game is after all much bigger than we currently see in the game. New areas don't just materialize out of nowhere. Look at the graveyard for example. That graveyard was added at the same time as the Harbor, but none of those graves are recent.

What we need to realize is that just because we can't access an area of the game, or we can't see something that should be obvious, doesn't mean that it is non-existant. A good example of this is Darrowmere Lake. During the second war it played host to many naval battles between the Horde and Alliance. It was also the site of the original Stratholme, the second largest city in Lordaeron and chief supplier of Alliance oil until the Horde razed the city to the ground.

But if you go to Darrowmere Lake in the game, you don't see a massive expanse of water, you don't see the ruins of an old port city and you don't see the wreckages of Alliance and Horde ships at the bottom of the lake. Instead you see this relatively small bit of water with the island of Caer Darrow almost in the middle of it.

A little bit of imagination is required.
