Undoubtedly this is a point of debate with DC. Notice what is posted on their website: DC Statutory Resident. If you believe that you qualify as a part-year DC resident versus a statutory resident, and decide to claim such it will be up to you to prove with DC why you take the position you do. If you take the position as you mention above, be ready to provide proof to back up that assertion if DC asks (and they might not).
