I'm not especially concerned about the credits or title sequence, as ''[[Sleep No More (TV story)|Sleep No More]]'' previously incorporated its title sequence into its framing device. It's a stylisation choice. When text appears giving us the names of locations in ''[[Resolution (TV story)|Resolution]]'', we're not meant to believe that text overlay is diegetic, part of the in-universe landscape for just a few seconds. Even if they've taken care to give this sort of text a style that fits neatly into the surrounding environment, it's still an out-of-universe element, done in a fun way.

I'm not especially concerned about the credits or title sequence, as Sleep No More previously incorporated its title sequence into its framing device. It's a stylisation choice. When text appears giving us the names of locations in Resolution, we're not meant to believe that text overlay is diegetic, part of the in-universe landscape for just a few seconds. Even if they've taken care to give this sort of text a style that fits neatly into the surrounding environment, it's still an out-of-universe element, done in a fun way.

The inclusion of DWM, Big Finish, this very wiki, and Doctor Who on iPlayer is what might give us pause, in terms of rule 4 that is. I'm leaning towards this being just another story, intended to be set within the DWU, with meta elements that show us some real-world Doctor Who things exist in the Doctor Who universe. But it's worth considering what the intent really is here.
