I'm going to guess that A. it is broadly known at this point and B. it mostly just ruined it for Nick, not everyone. But I also want to know it now!

It was just that you can go to Hyrule Castle early on in the game and the decision when to fight Ganon is up to the player. Knowing Nick, he'd want to fight Ganon straight away as part of a sweet speed strat, especially if he thought that the rest of the game was optional. Everyone else realises that they need to level up and enjoy exploring the rest of the world.
