Sure, but modern viewers probably don't see it that way. They see "their" reboot as the main one, and Old Who as a monolith of five trillion old episodes with outdated hairstyles and rubber monsters and shit (probably in large part because the internet wasn't around for any of those series).

So? Whether sometimes is a reboot or not is based on whether a certain audience sees it that way or not?

Um....yes? People see and refer to New Who as a reboot, so, to them, is is a reboot. It's definitely not a continuity reboot of course since the show keeps it's old continuity, but if the general audience sees it as a reboot of the show, that's all that really matters. Unless they wipe out continuity, what other possible reason is there for it to matter? If the creators start going "UGH! It's not a reboot! Geez people!" people are still going to refer to it as a reboot. It's a reboot due to popular consensus.

Now "reboot" doesn't look like a word anymore...

Yes, that's what I'm referring to. The show has made references to older version, and shares the same continuity with it.

Ah, well. Some people still make a distinction between a show reboot and a continuity reboot. You can reboot a show without scrapping its continuity. (IMO "reboot" is a misleading term for that, but whatever.)
