Does a valid source actually say that the definitive difference between the first season of classic Who and of NuWho is season/series. Anyways, straying off topic... Here we go with you not reading again. Yes, hundreds of sources say this. Certainly almost every issue of DWM since 2004 has made this distinction. The official website uses this language. It's not "coincidental". It's the standard and accepted way of differentiating between discrete, consecutive transmissions of televised stories.
