I doubt there’s any great mystery to that shot. The game probably takes places at least two years after BotW. Link would’ve put the sword away at some point because things would’ve seemed safe for a while. Then at some other point in the opening of this game they learn of malice leaking from underground and go to investigate, which gets us to the 2019 teaser. Of course he would pick it back up for something that important.
