No, I would not say so. The issue here isn't the three categories of Tawheed as a teaching model. Ultimately, the three category system is the derived from the Qur'an itself [nothing new added or subtracted] so there is nothing innovated or wrong as far as this categorization is concerned.
The only issue here is the response of some people who you imply are insistent upon this particular model over others. Perhaps some of them do not know the history/purpose of categorization to begin with, in which case it is just ignorance to blame. Or perhaps others of them just cling to it because their scholars categorize it that way, in which case it is blind fanaticism to blame.
Those are the real issues">issues (ignorance/fanaticism), but the categorization for learning itself is fine.

While it is useful as an academic and scholastic approach to divide Tawheed into categories for further in depth understanding - are the ones who believe and preach it as if it was an integral part of Islam an act of innovation?
There's quite a worrying trend amongst students of knowledge where they put the division of Tawheed in 3 as a necessity - oblivious to the fact that it could be divided more or even shortened if put forth in a new scholastic and academic model.
