Like it or not SS is right now the most key game in the series which only the original LOZ can maybe make a case for because it's the game that not only signaled change in the series approach but influenced both ALBW and BOTW in numerous ways.

I really like Skyward Sword but I'm not so sure about this. Skyward Sword is kind of an evolutionary dead end for the series. Breath of the Wild succeeded on critical and commercial fronts in part because it's so different from SS. 

Again, I enjoy SS and believe strongly that Zelda can succeed with several different blueprints. I just don't see how SS is especially important or influential, apart from steering future Zelda development in the opposite direction.
