I don't think, however, that questioning a closed discussion from a long time ago is a bad idea. I think some potent and honest things have been brought up here, still worth discussing.

I do kinda have to agree with the argument that we should treat Shalka like a contradiction and not something that's totally invalid. It's odd that one of the leading reasons we used to discount this story was that, while other flash-in-the-pants Doctor incarnations had no numbering, this one did and thus contradicted "the main stream." It feels like a technicality that really shouldn't matter under our modern rules and mandates.
