My idea is that the Time Lords are loomed as fully-grown children, rather than fully-grown adults. Perhaps it's somewhat against the authorial intention, but it fixes the only major continuity issue with Lungbarrow, at least to my knowledge (I know, there are also the issues of Susan not being there from the beginning, Romana and Leela knowing each other before Zagreus and some others, but I've dealt with those as well). I think the young Doctor refusing to live "with the other boys" in Listen perfectly fits with how he didn't get on well with his family in Lungbarrow.

Oh, and we don't really know that it was the Doctor's cot.
