Absolutely. You don't have to like it; it's okay that some of the other things bug you, and that some of the things that bug you are outweighed by other things for me. I agree with your description of those two "this is too close to now of an issue" items. I just enjoyed other episodes enough that I took it in stride. Frex, the Empty Child two-parter, in the same season you mentioned. For me, there are specific things that get a cringe reaction, but a lot more that get a shrug. But it is on the least science-y side of science fantasy, and there is not a lot of extrapolation going on at all.
