If you actually had to sail everywhere and do every room normally it'd be 8+ hours and incredibly boring. While I'm sure it's possible, Cosmo earns his living from streaming and what people want to watch is any%, and he is able to do multiple runs in a night.
If I didn't use the word glitch would it make you feel better? I mean what if he just skipped a few platforms in a room by using the Deku Leaf in an unintended way. Would that be allowed in your hypothetical run?
The longest games are JRPGs: Final Fantasy VII, VIII, IX, X, Skies of Arcadia, Baiten Kaitos at about 8-10 hours. Which is not doable repeatedly in one sitting, so you'll get a very unoptimised attempt. Cosmo is within 2.5 minutes of what is possible on a 4 hour run, and he does so through being able to make 10 or more run attempts in a night.
