Minor point - they're not different stations.

But structurally (and to some extent operationally) the majority of
them are. There is a range from such as clear separation with e.g.
Paddington while OTOH the Piccadilly Line under the Circle/District
Line was eased into existing sub-surface stations.

Perhaps you think a basement
isn't part of the building thats sitting on top of it because one was dug
and the other was built?

If it is not formed within the sub-structure of the building then it
is not. Is e.g. the ex-Kingsway telephone exchange part of any of the
buildings above ?
