What other reason for distinction is there? This isn't Star Wars where creative ownership has demonstrably changed hands.
Or you know, maybe even talking about things like "canonicity" is pointless and petty when you're dealing with such a small creative window of media output. Maybe when Murder Drones has stretched out for half a century of disjointed and questionable media additions we can talk "canon", but right now any such designation is fairly premature.
