Like Josiah said, they Spragg is offering us a choice. The question before us is why would we not choose the easier option that doesn't require a rewrite of a core policy? Why would we opt to make narrative continuity the reason for accepting this thing which is completely consistently described by Spragg and Richardson as "not a spin-off of Doctor Who"?
And who's going to write the rationale for including Vienna? Because I sure as heck don't see a clear and straightforward way to do it. If someone comes up to me a year from now and asks me, "Why do we include Vienna but not the Fantastic Four?" I really wouldn't have a clue what to say to them.
Conversely, if we banned it because Big Finish said it wasn't a Doctor Who spin-off, everyone in this thread could wrap their minds around that statement and know that it was a true statement. That rationale would at least be completely transparent and provable by showing legitimate quotes.
