 The thing is, we can discuss the "Brain of Morbius" all day
long, (all week long even) but the simple fact is, whether
Agamemnon likes it or not, is that Chris Chibnall (wherever he
got the idea from) liked the idea of pre-Hartnell incarnations

He got the idea from DC Comics in order to turn the Doctor into Doomsday.

of the Doctor. And as Executive Producer of Doctor Who he
decided to incorporate that idea in to his vision of the show in
2020. So whilst it's fun to debate the ins and outs of 1976, it
doesn't change the lore of Doctor Who that we have now in 2024.
 

Doctor Who ended in 2017.

Doctor Who history features a pre-First Doctor incarnation now,
and right or wrong - or until it's rewritten by another Doctor
Who showrunner at some stage in the future - that is the way it
is.

There are no incarnations of the Doctor before Hartnell.

 Doctor Ruth/The Fugitive Doctor exists in episodes of Doctor Who
as broadcast on BBC1 and has her own range of Big Finish audio
adventures coming next year, licensed and approved by the BBC.

Big Finish is not canon and neither is Doctor Ruth, unless you mean the psychologist.

All of which is as official as you can get! So anyone trying to

Officially non-canon.

claim that there are no pre-Hartnell incarnations are basically
just wasting their time and/or smoking hopium.

The ones claiming incarnations before Hartnell are hallucinating and smoking opium.
No one in their right mind could be stupid enough to believe a totally insane conspiracy theory that completely erases the character of the Doctor and replaces him with a monster based on Doomsday.
And now with the bigeneration bullshit attached to it it's become even more incredulous, unbelievable, and unacceptable. Like there's billions of copies of the Doctor running around because every Doctor, even the Timeless Child monster if you're stupid enough to believe that ridiculous garbage, regenerated into two copies, and each of these copies bigenerated again, and then the copies of the copies of the copies bigenerated until by the 64th bigeneration there's 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 Doctors, and 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 TARDISes.
Don't make me laugh!
Doctor Who ended in 2017.
