I don't think it's quite that extreme. I think it's more analogous to if Paul Cornell wrote DW fanfic at the behest of the BBC to keep people entertained during the quarantine, and was then released through official channels. :>

Joking aside, it seems they were specifically asked to do this by the BBC, and it was hosted on a BBC site. That's not at all the same as them just writing fanfic. I still think they understood it was just to promote the Comic Maker given the wording of the website, but it's a much greyer territory than that.
