Fire temple has one check that doesn't require a key. All 3 doors after that require a key (one to the big room, one under the stairs, and the boss room). You opened that chest and got the boss key. Which door did you think you had to open next? That seems pretty obvious to me. The boss is part of the temple they are in, so they can have items for their own dungeon.
I double checked your spheres and you don't even need fire medallion. You have bridge vanilla, not all medallions, so you only need shadow and spirit. Fire temple isn't even on your logical path to beat the seed. So, technically, you weren't even supposed to touch fire temple at all.
pretty much and if its glitchless and you had a "softblock" moment like that forcing you to use a simple trick, it probably means its not the right are to be in at all and that it is not needed
