People are either nuts, juvenile, or Sean Malstrom fanboys if they're freaking out over the mention of Link growing up in a boarding school as part of the game's backstory.
If we rewind back to 2003, it'd be people going insane when they heard Link had a grandma at the start of the game and percolated wild ideas that the entire game would be nothing but Link performing fetch quests for his granny.
Nintendo fans am worst fans. All they ever want is infinite copies of the singular title in a given franchise they adore, and display wild, 14-year-old displays of vitriol at anything different from their Twoo Wuv.
