Yeah, so to the point of my OP, I don't think Aonuma meant you can just battle ganon right after waking up. Pretty sure he meant you can get to Ganon without figuring out much of the story.
I'm hearing this being spread around that you can just go to the final boss right off the bat based on something that was said in an interview:
But I think this interpretation that you can just waltz right into the boss is incorrect.
1. That would be stupid
2. Ganon isn't even in a physical...
