Link not being the HoT makes time split? Kind of like, how Ganon's death (even though he was never actually killed in FSA) in both timelines result in a merge? ALttP happening causes a merge? FSA creates another split why? PH creates another split why? Link saving Termina causes X splits resulting in X different timelines that all get destroyed? For what reason is this important?

I swear to Xenu, I've seen so many ideas of reasons for splitting and merging, it's not even fun. Like that dude who once said the timelines merges after WW, and justified it with "I don't like the split timeline theory."

Oh, and who made that theory when the timeline splits first after OoT, then after tMC, then after the Oracles and then after FSA, which joined timeline with OoT for some goddamn reason?

The OoT Split is accounted for, there is a reason for assuming it exists, the games work with two ending of OoT and everything makes sense. Letting FSA split into MM which also follows OoT does not! I hate it when people split and merge just for the sake of it, not even trying to make sense of it. It's like "okay, let's spice this up by throwing a split after tMC, then maybe a merge after MM and then split again in LoZ, because Ganon doesn't have a Trident, then let that merge with pre-OoT and SC2 and make Tingle Link's father...

This has been called Zelda: Serious Business for a reason, not Zelda: Dowhateveryouwant Business.
