There isn't a set of rules listed anywhere, so it's open to interpretation, and given the above, I'd say Tyson was as retired as you can possibly get. What sets it apart from any other retired fighter? He didn't hold a press conference?
Using that static logic some posters and writers are pushing: If Lennox Lewis announced a comeback today and fought Steve Cunningham in his comeback, that fight would be for the lineal title.... because he didn't really retire if he came back later.
Which is a load of ****.
