To be clear, a good 60-70% of Railgun season 1 was filler too, including the entire second half. Yet, the novels and Railgun manga do reference these events so they are canon, so it’s not really necessary to classify any of this as filler.

that's why I keep asking myself, why he call then "filler" who told him that?

im late on this one but it should be noted that this episode is one of the few in this second half to feature scenes actually present in the original manga. The flashback scene where Misaka and Saten make cookies is from chapter 39.5. In turn the scene where Kongou (fan girl) meets up with Shirai is from chapter 40. However the scene is massively altered. Im not sure if you're aware of this but Kongou is a transfer student to tokiwadai. However the anime changes when she transfers in. In the anime she transfers in shortly before season 1. In the manga she transfers in shortly after the Sisters arc. As a result the scene in chapter 40 is actually when she and Shiari first meet. Likewise in chapter 40 it is not Shiari who goes shopping with her but actually Misaka. In chapter 40 after encountering Shiari she encounters Misaka alongside the imposter Unabara Mitsuki from Index ep 18. Much like how in that episode MIsaka pretends Touma is her boyfriend to get the fake Unabara to leave her alone, upon seeing Kongou Misaka pretends Kongou is her friend for the same reason. The two then do the shopping we see Kongou do with Shiari in this episode. Unfortunately the anime cuts this all out and so the imposter Unabara Mitsuki never appears however it is during this time period that he is stalking Misaka due to her position in the "Kamijo faction". Within chapter 40 there's several time skips and its within those times skips that this anime original arc takes place. Chapter 40-42 makes up a mini arc called the "intermission arc" that introduces Kongou. It focuses on her attempts to create a clique within tokiwadai to rival the other powerful cliques of the school. This arc is not featured in the anime because it no longer makes sense since Kongou has been at the school for a while in the anime unlike her recently transferred in manga counterpart. It should be noted that this anime original arc that makes up the second half of S is canon as its referenced by other railgun material.
