I never thought you were ignorant to it, you made it sound like you didn't understand the concept or I misunderstood.
You do realize that Nintendo has been dropping cute little hints all over the place since the SNES days right? It's not Nostro-esque in that Nintendo is trying to help you predict anything, its just done as inside jokes, a shinto dragon giving link a white wand to change the direction of the wind is just too obvious. In animal crossing one of the characters says 'it displays billions of polygons!" when you talk to them wearing 3-D glasses, it caused a shit storm of rumors and it was just Nintendo playing. As for the hidden meanings if you study the ancient histories you see the clear cut mirrors to each other.
It's meant to be there 1.) as a crutch for the story tellers, using a pre-made story to iconically portray gives them fuel for writing and 2.) it offers a deeper layer of substance to the story for anyone who wants to dig (which is an audience believe it or not).
Norse mythos is complicated as all hell, trying to pronounce anything is like forcefully swallowing a dictionary whole. There was some norse in MM I think.
dont be so sensitive, if you're Neanderthal i'd hate to meet an idiot.
