Okay but aside from statements from Guggenheim and Shipp, is there anything in the actual end-product (show, associated comics) supporting that?

There's sometimes different tiers of canon. Like there's a difference between Rowling saying "Dumbledore is X" in an interview, vs what actually appears in the books, for example. Similar contrast with Disney, they give the name of Sofia the First's dad (Birk Balthazar) in an interview but his name is never given in the episodes themselves. Nor is the information that he was from Freezenberg, or that Sofia's mom Miranda came from Galdiz, or that Miranda's surname was Cordova, or that King Roland's surname is Winslow, etc. This is all interview-only type information which I think to some fans is considered a tier below information which is actually referenced in the "series proper" (episode transcripts) which I think is considered to be a higher more respectable level of canon, if you were going to rank things.
