Wouldn't he correctly be the 13th Doctor - as; 01 - William Hartnell 02 - Patrick Troughton 03 - Jon Pertwee 04 - Tom Baker 05 - Peter Davison 06 - Colin Baker 07 - Sylvester McCoy 08 - Paul McGann XX - Jhon Hurt 09 - Christopher Eccleston 10 - David Tennant 11 - Matt Smith (later considers himself the 12th) 13 - Peter Capaldi

Because the 11th Doctor considers the War Doctor to be a "true" Doctor as they even discussed - but the 10th (and the War Doctor himself) won't remember that so they retain their numbers of ignoring the War Doctor?

I am not suggesting the War Doctor be considered the eighth Doctor by himself or any other Doctors except Matt Smiths' Doctor...
