It's this line I have issue with:
only several times are 'towers' ever mentioned in the actual game; most notably the reference is found inThe Book of the Dragonborn, though this could easily just be allegory
Vix is dismissing an in-game source - a prophecy from an Elder Scroll no less! - as allegory?
The Towers are from an in-game source and legitimise an out-of-game one. Until another in-game source contradicts that, we can only work on what we think we know. I get what your saying about why he's tagged it as such, but if I were to start a discussion based on the Towers and their implications from The Book of the Dragonborn I would be hesitant to tag it as non-canon.
