What was the need for changing ED_RANG_OR_HOOKSHOT to just boomerang? Were those GS tokens not retrievable with the hookshot? I'm guessing that was a leftover from 3DS, which probably functioned differently?

The boomerang seems to have an ever so slightly shorter range than the hookshot, and it was relevent for the underwater cow switch in MQ jabu: Hookshot can reach when you are standing on the edge of the lift platform when it is at it's lowest, rang cannot, and it's not an age thing as I tested with timeless items. This is why the rang needs a trick for that one.

The range check includes every longer range method, so rang being shorter naturally includes hookshot.
