The special attack animations being canon is a subjective thing- not one anybody MUST accept as true. The only ones that are actually backed up as canon are Summons via taking the opponent to another dimension. That is especially written in the ultimania. No such thing is written about the limit breaks.

People may accept them as canon, but there is no reason to do so beyond the writer wanting to. Squall can use this inside- and it never leaves a hole for example. Whether they're true representations of their power is up to the writer. There is no right or wrong about it.
