I suppose now is an appropriate time to bring up the "fact" that Hylian is the elf-like race and Hyrulean is the general term for any inhabitant of Hyrule. Perhaps the earlier games used the wrong term because they didn't have it pinned down yet.
I suppose that one could argue that Kokiri, Gerudo, and Shiekah are just races of Hylians. The Kokiri may be ageless because of some mystical property of the forest. Wonder if that means that Saria will age now.
So that leaves Hylian, Zora, Goron, and Deku, just like in MM.
An optional dungeon? So what's the incentive?
The race issue seems to be minor retcon fodder, easily established as a temporal burp, as Dave Anez would put it.
