I just watched this Retrospective on YouTube, and they spend the last part trying to come up with a timeline for Zelda, including explaining why Minish Cap is first. Could this be the basis for your theory, Chaltab?

But I did think of another reason why Link's Awakening should be after A Link to the Past. The game takes place as a dream of Link, and a lot of the activity is based off of his memories. He faces a lot of enemies and bosses first seen in A Link to the Past including, most importantly of all, Shadow Agahnim, whose real counterpart only appears in A Link to the Past. One could argue this is a prophetic type of dream, but it makes more sense to me that it would be revived in his nightmares.
