Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's explicit skepticism ('And unlimited power') in Episode 11 plants the seeds for the ideological clash with Hardiman and Winser in Episode 12, where Hardiman advocates for immediate use of Axonite and the Doctor insists on caution. This escalates the conflict.
