When you have to go back in time to fight Demise, obviously nothing has been decided yet, but you have time to run around and get what you need for the battle, by going back into the future world. If you go into the future, wouldn't the fate of the world have been decided by then, even if you didn't go to the final fight yet? I just feel like if you go into the future, obviously something would have changed there after Demise was resurrected.
In back to the future Marty changes something in the past, and it has an effect on the future obviously. Especially when he went back to 1985 after the almanac was in Biff's hands in 1955. Just the fact that Demise has been reborn should have changed the future as soon as you step back into it.

It depends on how you look at it. Following BttF logic, what you say makes sense. However, it could be more of a "pre-destination" type thing. Basically, everything in the past has already happened. Link's present time would never change because the time he's used to living in was created by Demise being defeated in the past. Link hasn't personally experienced it from his perspective, yet, but that doesn't mean it didn't already happen in the past. Kind of like how you can see Zelda in her crystal (although you won't know what it is) long before you ever see her seal herself in the past.
Anyway, this is why you don't try to apply logic to time travel and just go with it.
