Oh let's not come back to the Cook quote about Monk a-frecking-gain. We have stated many times before that you can't just assume, when Cook was asked about X, that if she had had something to say about Y, she would have said so. I mean cripes. I could just as easily say "she took the time to point out the TV story wasn't part of Lockdown!, so surely, if the short story hadn't been part of it either, she would have said so in so many words". This whole area of argumentation is much too speculative to be of much use.

Beyond that… again, the thing is that the official host of an official tweetalong using the hashtag seems like a different thing entirely from random fans using the hashtag. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Cook (or Moffat, or Talalay, or…) never actually posted fanworks with the hashtags, did they? They retweeted such things, but that's very different.
