I would disagree with that comparison... In Double Agent it's Ming Na Wen playing Ming Na Wen, and son on... In Watch the Game it's Tom Holland, Robert Downey Jr. and Jon Favreau playing their characters.

Not only do they play the characters accurately in terms of character/personality, but it fits in with their place within the wider MCU story... Parker is trying to get closer with Stark, Stark is trying to get away from the Avengers, Hogan is still working as Stark's friend/assistant.

I really believe it counts as continuity because unlike Team Thor, the characters are exactly where they should be... Thor would never really rent a flat with a random guy which makes it non-canon... but the characters in Watch the Game are exactly where they should be.
