We've done no shoving for Sympathy for the Devil. A later story confirmed that that universe specifically was an alternate universe within the DWU. A main-universe DWU character travels there. Textbook parallel universe, like those visited in Inferno and Rise of the Cybermen. Other parallel universes are also visited or in some way take part in the plot of a properly DWU story.

We don't just assign "parallel universe" or "alternate timeline" to anything we might wish to somehow make valid, when no context is given to assume that it is an alternate timeline.
