I mean, the whole thing is this big fever-dream written for kids; yanno, a fairy tale. At the same time, our author is someone whose internal moral compass is pretty twisted up. So, logical consistency left the building long before pen was put to paper.

Also, fledgling authors take note: this is what happens when you flagrantly defy thermodynamics over and over again. Nerds will rip your work to shreds.

Not necessarily. This is what happens when you write poorly. Doctor Who's electric screwdriver is a solve-it-all tool. But it doesn't ruin the stories in each episode because most are well writen.

Doctor Who has no plot holes?

Unless your target audience is nerds, I don't think that's a reason to care. Nerds be nerdin.
