That's not a canon fact.

So you think that the Hylian race could decline in less than 200 years, taking into account that TP or TWW takes place in-between?

Showsni doesn't think ALttP is after OoT, mind you.

I like my pre OoT ALttP theory, controversial as it may be. TP is the only thing that stops my timeline being a nice single one, too.

Just one thing for now:

The eye-with-tear, on the other hand, has been placed in areas related to benevolence, like Zelda's robe in TP and the wind stones that connect to the Hero's spirit; neither of which have any visible connection to the Sheikah.

In OoT, the Sheikah tribe are identified only as a people dedicated to fighting evil. If the eye represents evil, then the tear represents evil being hurt.

In TP, The Shiekah symbol on Zelda's robe is a reference to Shiek, who was cut out of the game; the wind stones are obviously the gossip stones.

Not directly, but they do tie to the Shiekah.

Fair enough. But as long as the eye-without-tear is connected to evil, then the Sheikah symbol must be defined in relation to that.

of course; I'm all for the "evil eye crying" theory.
