In the past, Jim has been pretty clear about not including the Oblivion War in the main story.

Hmm, ok.
There are a ton of call-backs to the short stories in PT though (River Shoulders, the state Carlos is in, grendelkin are referenced) so it sounded plausible.
Do you have a reference for that? The intro to Backup in Side Jobs talks about it, but the way that's worded isn't IMO incompatible with this.
We - the readers - know why Carlos is so messed up in PT, but Harry doesn't. The same could hold true for this. Maybe all Harry will learn is that Lara ordered him to do it, but the implication will be clear to us that it's an Oblivion thing.
Walter the skull:
I don't think Jim said that the Oblivion war wouldn't be in the main series, just that Harry would never find out about it. Any time we see Ivy, we're seeing the Oblivion war. Hell, I wonder if some of the outsiders are losers of the Oblivion war.

You can try searching here: https://wordof.jim-butcher.com/. I'd suggest "oblivion war" as a search term.
