One of the main arguments used against it is this quote:

"He's clearly not the eighth Doctor of mainstream continuity. He does look like Paul McGann."

But what does this even mean? If I recall correctly, Lance Parkin makes no distinction between an "Infinity Doctors universe" and " the main DWU" in the book Whoniverse. There's no indication he regards The Infinity Doctors as being in a separate universe. Part of the point of The Infinity Doctors is the fact it depicts Gallifrey very differently. That's the idea. Trying to declare it an alternate universe and claim the author agrees doesn't work when the author isn't actually agreeing with you.
