And I'm unfamiliar with the relevant stories, as you have already surmised, but please enlighten me: is it implied by the Matrix-Trey's appearance that Romana died in that third incarnation? Because if not, then it's another, even firmer example of a version of a Gallifreyan being uploaded into the Matrix even though their original self isn't dead.
