I just know @zelda_musou hates to see me coming. Give me age of imprisonment DLC. (The wait is actually going to be forever ugh…)
BotW Masterworks does not state that they started out with rounded ears, but says they HAD them long ago, not started out.
It also says breeding changing their ear shape is *widely believed*, but posits another theory to counter this claim: w/ a more in-depth religous explanation
Creating a Champion (p. 401) explicitly states that "long ago, the ancient Gerudo had rounded ears" and only gained pointed ears later after generations of partnering with Hylians.
Even accounting for Skyward Sword, Nintendo canon still establishes that the Gerudo started out with rounded ears, and we literally see Ganondorf and those "ancient" Gerudo that Creating a Champion tells us about in Ocarina of Time where they all have rounded ears and gold eyes.
The only one who consistently keeps those same rounded ears across eras is Ganondorf.
Since Gerudo almost always reproduce with Hylian men: I would chalk this up to this particular woman not having seen Hylians before; not all Gerudo being unfamiliar with Hylian physiology.
Also, the ancestors of all humans had pointy ears in SkSw. So Gerudo ancestors would too.
To me, this really solidifies that Ardi and the Gerudo of Age of Imprisonment (Tears of the Kingdom's past) couldn't have come before Ocarina of Time.
In the Ocarina of Time remake, this Gerudo is shocked to see a Hylian with pointy ears.
A Gerudo wouldn't be surprised to see pointy ears if their own people already had them earlier in the timeline.
Plus, it makes no biological sense for them to revert from pointy ears back to round ears. Since the Gerudo are an all-female tribe (aside from one male born every 100 years) and rely on Hylian men to keep their population going, Hylian genetics only blend in more over time, not less.
It's the exact same reason green eyes eventually become the dominant trait over their original golden ones later in the timeline.

I feel out of all pieces of evidence for a true founding, this is perhaps the most important. It straight up tells us the first emergance of Ganon/Calamity Ganon, and it's a description what matches perfectly with Ocatina Dorf, and simply does not match TOTK Dorf.
Meaning either:
-TotK Ganondorf came first
-CaC is completely retconned

"Ganondorf lost control, and his powers consumed him, transforming him into the Dark Beast Ganon."
"He revived again and again, only to be sealed many times over. Eventually, the Demon King Ganon became hatred and malice incarnate […]"

Uno reverse: I wonder if he and the Gerudo who inhabit the fortress on the border of Hyrule could be the descendants of Demon King Ganondorf, gathered together for generations by Koume & Kotake in their schemes to resurrect their master? 🤔

That ain't it, that's an AI summary of Reddit threads that believe TOTK retconned CaC.
Here are two quotes from CaC. Both of them say that a Ganondorf (that matched Ocarina Ganondorf, and does not at all match TOTK Ganondorf) transformed into Ganon, got sealed time and time again, eventually becoming what's known as Calamity Ganon.
And TOTK tells us where Ganon originates from.
For Calamity Ganon to be seperate from Ocarina Ganon, one of the following must be true:
1. Creating a Champion's backstory of Calamity Ganon must be completely scrapped. And there's no indication (or reason why) that BOTW gets its detailed Ganon lore fully retconned in the game's direct sequel.
2. The backstory of Calamity Ganon = Ganon is still what in-universe characters believe, but the truth is that TOTK Ganondorf and Calamity Ganon are seperate from the original. Which means myths of the OG Ganon still exist, which makes it very, very weird why this was never brought up at all when a new Ganondorf came along.
3. The Ganon-emerges events from the timelines in the two Wild books, that are identical in their wording, must be completely seperate events, even though the events that follow (the Sheikah becoming advanced) are the exact same on both timelines
@zelda_musou we are gonna quit asking, so you might as well give us what we want.
Give us playable Queen Sonia and Ganondorf😭
