Its been awhile since I've completed WW. But doesn't Daphnes merely ask for old Hyrule to be flooded? While its clear his intentions where to destroy it, who's to say someone later on didn't wish for it to be unflooded or that it didn't dry out. LoZ Hyrule could very well be the old Hyrule. But then again, it may not be.
And call me a stickler for consistency and wanting things in the same continuity, but I have never bought the split time line theory. Sure, it maybe possible. But to me its a complete cop-out if Nintendo goes that route. This is not to start a timeline fight or anything. JMO. But if there are those who believe every game is just the retelling of the same legend, then why can't things that have been said in game or in the manuals just be chalked up to misinterpretation of the legend(s) and therefore, Nintendo can clean up any inconsistencies
