I entirely agree, the use of elements from an invalid story should not mean that the resulting story is invalid, just that it doesn't make the source automatically valid. It's not as if it's any different from e.g. the Star Trek crossover. If we consider Jean-Luc Picard to be valid despite from obviously originating from an invalid source based on his appearance in Assimilation2 then I see no reason not to consider Cyrian valid based on his appearance in Rescue despite him first appearing in an invalid source.
