What makes it an alternate universe? For all we know, immediately following the end of the webcast's events, the Doctor walks up, takes back his umbrella, and walks off. There's nothing here screaming "not compatible with the main universe". They might have been attempting to make it so the events of the TV Movie never happened, but in the end, that's not what they did. In fact, Freedman said McGann could be a future incarnation - and thus his attempt at ignoring the movie ends up as a story that is basically just an animated serial, albeit one that has a vague ending.

Very true and very well said.
