even RTD acknowledges that for Rose to choose Ten II over “her Doctor” is completely out-of-character
Yes, it is, so why the hell did he do it?! He's a better writer than this.
I know I'm a lone voice in DW fandom, but I could not stand TSE/JE for many reasons, the main one being the OOC of both the Doctor and Rose. Yes, I know, it's just fiction. But good fiction is internally consistent, and to go against that ruins the show.
It seems to me that RTD was so intent on throwing everything but the kitchen sink into this finale that he bit off way more than he could chew, writing a story that had flawed science, baffling logic and serious characterization problems. He really should've done more with a lot less (and usually does).
I honestly would've rather seen Rose never reappear, or even killed in battle, than the ending that actually happened.
The preceding is merely my own opinion and interpretation of events. Your mileage may vary.
