Very good observation, Amorkuz. It’s an interesting problem to have, as it is good for the show but difficult sometimes for us, haha. Perhaps that is in fact one of those things, perhaps “one of those Time Lords” is meant to be slightly ambiguous. I would definitely take it as a simple “ugh, I’m the boring type of Time Lord that doesn’t change [race and/or sex]” sort of thing, rather than “I’m one of the few who can’t do that,” but maybe it’s impossible to truly definitively categorize it as one or the other. In that case, though I agree that it would be helpful to wait for more in-show evidence for what to do, I also don’t think we should just continue to stick with the “they” concept we’ve merely invented until that happens; wouldn’t it be better to assume what the majority of the in-show evidence suggests until more information can be gleaned in the future?
