TO me, this would be like saying that Frankenstein's appearance in Doctor Who (1996) is to be ignored for not being created to be connected to the special. The Incomplete's Head is one complete story that, while being a comic, recycles "stock footage" to further tell that narrative. As far as I can see, if the linking segments are set in the DWU, and if they are meant to be connected to Doctor Who in such a way that someone wanted us to find the connections present in the story, then we can't just cut around them (especially since the segments stop being named after issue 2).
