I think this was at the stage where K-A was no longer a thing. So all you had was E (3+) and T (13+).
Making this T would have been a bit much.
To piggyback on your point, I also think this came out when congress was balls deep fighting the music industry because those devil musicians like Eminem, Korn, Limp Bisquick were ruining the youth.
Not sure about ESRB, but for Europe, PEGI has revised their ratings since then.
3D Zeldas used to be rated 7, but nowadays they're 12. Including remakes of old games. OoT and MM 3D had their rating raised.
Being 3D automatically bumps ratings up, even Mario Odyssey and 3D World got a 7 vs Wonder's 3.
