They probably got the review copies early because Mario and Zelda have been the biggest and most anticipated games of the year for Nintendo.

Doesn't mean anything regarding the truthfulness of the perfect scores. You can be sure that Mario Odyssey will be reviewed in a timely manner by all major outlets - the more a game is anticipated, the quicker they give the score.

At least with Zelda we can confirm that EDGE wasn't honest about the score, because Breath of the Wild got a 7/10 elsewhere. So there's room for the argument that Super Mario Odyssey's 10/10 from EDGE is fishy.

Yes. But that 7/10 reviewer unexpectedly announced his retirement from game criticism the same day EDGE's Odyssey score leaked. Coincidence? I think not.

EDGE is indeed working secretly behind the scenes to silence Mario naysayers and Sterling is its latest victim. Who is really pulling the strings in all this?
