That doesn't affect my point at all. We were talking about Aonuma, not the games themselves. If you're going to assert that Aonuma is the key to how long it takes for Zelda games to get made, then you have to accept that his time is critical to how long it takes, and thus the fact that he is the producer on more titles should impact the time taken to make each game.

Very good. Then we agree now that the problem is Aonuma.

Not at all. I don't have a problem with a 5 year gap between mainline console Zelda titles, because the handheld titles bring great innovation to the series, and the spinoffs that fill the remaining gaps are also great. If Zelda U was confidently going to be released in 2014, Hyrule Warriors probably wouldn't have been made, and I'm so glad that it was.
But more than that, I'm pointing out that, if you use YOUR logic, the longer delay for console titles is explained by the handheld titles, and if you don't, then it's not Aonuma's fault anyway.
