that's like saying that Pokken isn't a pokemon game because it doesn't say pokemon on the box.

Persona and SMT takes place in the same universe, uses reoccuring characters (the kuzunohas), uses many of the same mechanics, and uses the same monsters.

Isn't that only the case for P1 and P2?

There isn't any reason to think that P1 and P2 are in a different universe than the later Persona games, considering that both Personas 3 and 5 reference Katsuya still working as a detective in universe.

Persona 5 basically reconfirms that demons are coming from something that sounds suspiciously like the expanse anyway (a realm where human desires are given form as demons)
