Right... a 10 year old kid can't swim due to stamina...
yet he can run for hours. he can fight hordes of enemies up until his last breath(heart) After hours of running around in a dark dungeon, he can still fight against the boss.
Your reasoning works against you.
Although not being able to leave Outset island before your time is up is one good thing... but that only works for the very begining. But it could have been easier to just put it so you can't go past a certain point. Just like the one you see when you try and get off map. There is still water ahead of you... but the KORL wont let you, instead of the boat, it would be one of those Fishman things.
A game heavily based on and around water and having almost no swimming ability and diving is just... sad.
