Majoras Mask bias seems to be the reason.I don't get why people want Young Link in Smash 4.
The only reason he got in Melee is because the Zelda characters in that game are based on Ocarina of Time, which showed a younger Link. (Ganon could be an expection, since his design is actually based on the Space World 2000 demo)
Twilight Princess, which is the game that the Zelda characters are based on in Brawl and 4, does not feature a younger Link, not even in concept art (unlike Sheik), so we got the next best thing; the Hero of Wind.
And Tink's moveset is basically a Luigified Young Link; Boomerang and Spin Attack have the same properties, they can wall jump and their swords do punching sounds.
And/or Melee nostalgia
