In the thread you keep citing, OnlyOnTuesdays88 says that it is not an allusion. I don't know why you are citing this for your case that it is.

And see this thread. "A reference to a song, book, another show, etc." Not a reference to a thing that you see in lots of shows, books, etc. An allusion is a specific thing that is associated with that one work. That page is not a list of tropes. See tvtropes.org for that.
