I'm ambidextrous, so it really didn't matter to me gameplay-wise. Makes no sense not to include a mirror mode though. And it just sucks that Link has been made a righty for the past few games, when he was basically the most prominent lefty video game character. I was surprised by Link's handedness in BotW, since the justification for his being right-handed in TP and SS was "motion-controls" for swordplay, but that's non-existent in both the Wii U and Switch versions.
Silent Realms were easy, but I just hated doing them. I know it's supposed to break up the pace of the game, but it just felt like it did so in the wrong way. Any kind of mini "collect-a-thon" is the wrong approach IMO, and it's why I couldn't stand the Tears of Light sequences in TP either. They're rather boring and feel like a waste of time. They feel uncreative too given that they basically use the same environments as the rest of the game just in a different "darker" world.
