I completely agree with you here. Miyamoto has said similar thing in the past, which is also why they avoid saying that things like
SS is the 'earliest' because if they decide to add something later, they have a tough time.

I think this would be a GREAT idea. I know it's sort of obvious, but it could be a blend of Tower Defense and Zelda with Link traveling around Hyrule to get magic, items, etc. to continually strengthen the castle against enemy onslaught. To even tie things back together, we could even learn that the "Silent Realm" was an earlier attempt to seal away the Triforce against similar opposition. This could, inevitably, help explain why the branch of the timeline where they leave Hyrule advances and the others do not, there is too much fighting for true technological achievements to take place, but leaving such a dangerous land that is under constant duress has allowed/forced it's former residents to advance. (I know that last bit is conjecture, but it would really go a long way in explaining why some timelines have advanced in tech and others are deathly stagnant)
