(I'm a they, not a he.)

Yeah, that's essentially what I was going for. Unless there's something that actually meaningfully explicitly connects a LEGO narrative featuring elements from Doctor Who to the actual factual narrative of the DWU, we should operate under the assumption that it isn't meant to be set in it, but is instead, as the films are explicitly meant to evoke, a play-session caught on film.

Rule 4 works fine for, say, those Thebes Publishing Erimem stories, right -- do they connect back to her adventures with the Doctor in any meaningful sense? Valid, done, this stuff is pretty clear cut. But that doesn't work when it's a Batman story that you're trying to apply those rules to.
