I remember hearing from a podcast that in an interview one of the devs mentioned that, naturally, these things were caught in QA, but they decided to leave them in.  I think that’s fucking great, because it lets the player feel clever for circumventing the intended solution.

I remember one shrine where the intended solution involved sending a key-ball off through some wind while timing it so a platform stops it from falling midway.

I said, “Fuck that”, and used Magnesis to lift a box with the ball balancing atop it so I could get the ball into position from afar.
