So, Iguess the fact that the events of of OoT are constantly mentioned in TWW means nothing? Or the fact that Ganondorf, who is the very same one from OoT acknowledges the HoT?
Yes. If you look at tWW as a stand alone title with OoT being a "legend", then it works fine. But if you view OoT as a literal historical set of events, a lot of tWW doesn't make sense. Why is the pure evil Ganondorf who wanted to destroy Hyrule suddenly sentimental about it? How are the events of MM possible in tWW's timeline when this is on the adult timeline? Where did the Wind Waker come from? It wasn't relevant in OoT. Where did these two sages come from? They were never necessary to power up the Master Sword before and they never were again at any point of time.
But if OoT is a legend, it's easy to explain much of this away with OoT not being literal historical fact and items like the Wind Waker simply being the reinterpretation of the Ocarina of Time and tWW's Ganon being a sympathetic reinterpretation of OoT's Ganondorf.
