That's on a bureaucratic level of deciding if the story is valid or not. I mean when a story retcons random stuff from another story that the writer had nothing to do with.

The Forgotten says that in the TV movie the Doctor lied about being half-human. We include this alongside the equally-possible contingency that he wasn't lying, because the writer of TF had nothing to do with the TV movie.

If a comic said that the events of The Doctor, the Widow, and the Wardrobe was entirely the Doctor having a coma, we'd say "you can't do that" and we'd include it with a solid grain of salt.

What I'm getting at is that we can't just decide that DiT is a dream.
