And sure stuff like Continental Club were sold via mailorder, but I mean Goofin' put out other releases not considered 'bootlegs' right? Shit, those Goofin' albums are even sold legit digitally on iTunes/eMusic/etc. So why aren't they considered official if they're officially sanctioned by the band, and being sold by the band?

You make an interesting point, and one that is hard to rebut. I'm not sure what was going through my head when I was developing the Discography in 2000, but I'm sure it made sense to me at the time (and was possibly even influenced by other discographies or sources).
You've also reminded me of a thread I've been meaning to start...
