Its all comes down to what we buy as the definition for a number station. For me a number station needs sends a message to be a number station, not a key.

We don't know that it's a key that's being sent. For all we know, it could be just random data. Obviously it's most likely not random data, but ciphertext. Either way, we have no idea what the message is.

A data payload you didn't already know is a message. This message contains a key.
