I said so myself that they are separate in the databook, but they aren't separate technique. Chidori suddenly ceased to be Chidori and became a different technique when he cut the lightning bolt? No, he figured he would change the name afterwards. Also databook 3 also says Tobi is Uchiha Madara, so it doesn't matter Chidori and Raikiri are separated there.
