I consider the SYR's to be proper albums in and of themselves, except for 1.
I think some of their SYR material represents some of the band's most incredible work.
Goodbye 20th Century, for example, though not the best SYR, is DEFINITELY a Sonic Youth album, right alongside their major-league players like ATL, if only because it's a double album and has kickass cover art and is incredible.
Just my opinion, though. But I think GB20th belongs on the official discography.
