If I said that a certain title was ‘the first Zelda game’, then that means that we cant ever make a title that takes place before that!
I am doubtful that Aonuma would be this uncomromisingly dogmatic as to the chronology of his own series. Asuming this is not some elaborate scam, I find it likely that something was lost in translation.
Other than that, this is nothing new. We have seen the effects of this 'secret document' for quite some time now, and it is not very surprising that Fujibayashi would take an inkling to it considering the interest he has shown in these matters in the past.
Now, the real object of interest here is the rest of the interview! *goes reading*
