Exactly. Calling her non-canonical is akin to calling Crystal Dynamics's Lara Croft non-canonical because she is different from the Core Design Lara Croft. There are like five "canons" (continuities):

Core/Ballantine, Paramount, Top Cow, Crystal Dynamics, Crystal Dynamics 2013

And then there's things like Lara Croft & The Guardian of Light, and the Re\Visioned: Tomb Raider Animated Series. For these it would be fine to say they're non-canonical.

But calling a reboot non-canonical just sounds like Core devotionists pitching a fit.
