I agree they're part of the physical album, but not the tracklisting/disc
1/main content.
This situation is tricky, you yourself stated the labelling:
"Disc Two (Bonus Disc)
Uncovered 2008/2009
<tracklist>
Disc Three (Bonus Disc)
Black Clouds & Silver Linings
(Instrumental Mixes)"
They are clearly marked as both 'bonus disc' and 'disc 2/3'. My logic is
simply that as they are not part of the main album content (disc 1), and are
supplementary and that they are also labelled 'bonus disc', that it is
probably more appropriate to categorise them as such.
