This is something Kep and I were talking about last night, and we agreed that Light Arrows should be treated as real light (or at least in some games). Because words aren't my best forte, I'm just gonna list the reasons why they should be considered real light.
...god I hope this doesn't backfire...
- They serve the same function as natural sunlight for puzzles.
- They reflect off of the mirror shield.
- Puppet Ganon's weakness is stated to be rays of light, and the weapon used to beat his weakness is the Light Arrows.
- They're made out of minor gods who themselves are made of light. Said light is actual light, being done in by shadows and whatnot, and the whole game (Twilight Princess) revolves around light and shadow/twilight. Furthermore, in BotW the Twilight Bow/Zelda's Bow does the same thing as the Bow of Light. Speaking of which...
- The Bow of Light is stated by WoG to fire arrows of pure light. To partner with that, the arrows fly in a perfectly straight line and have unlimited range until it hits something, just like real light. None of the other arrows do this in the game, and act like normal arrows.
