Still the issue is valid.
There are plenty of demos released professionally by labels and they are still demo releases, as exampled above.
The demo sessions from the album released around the album, earlier, or in some cases long after are still demo releases, otherwise why do we still hold "Demo" as release type. Why are demo releases not classified as Albums or "EP", compilations, etc.
The EP is something that is not a single and is too chort to ble a full-length album, this release is neither, it's a demo of the proper album.
Let's make this clear at last, the warning says:
"This is an EP containing demo-recordings, that does not make it a demo-release!"
First this release si an EP, this is a vinyl extended play record.
Nevertheless it's a demo release. Otherwise these releases:

https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Graveland/Carpathian_Wolves_-_Rehearsal_1993/566290
https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Behemoth/...from_the_Pagan_Vastlands/484058
are not demo-releases, but CDs, tapes and phonograph records "containing demo-recordings".
Source/Evidence:
It IS a demo released on a 10" Extended Play record, the same way, as the mentioned releases are demo-releases released on other physical formats.
