Why make him #5 in WoW of all games? Arena has never been that prestigious and most players primarily engaged in PvE rather than PvP, which didn’t have such rankings.

Aaron seems like the kind of guy who would sink a ton of time in to something so meaningless now, doesn't he?

PvE didn't necessarily have formal individual rankings at that time, but it sort of does now.

PvP was a perfectly legit thing to be sweaty about ranking in. I had about 3 friends who were in some of the top rankings for their battlegroup for their classes.
