I understand he has compelling reasons not to, but I think it is pretty simply true he COULD settle down. The option exists. The power exists to kill himself. The power exists to do this or do that if he ever felt it was too much of a burden. He's not forced to, he just feels personally responsible...which, again, is all him. Obviously wouldn't make for much of an interesting show...

But this is all in relation to him being angry towards Wilf unfairly. I'm not saying I don't understand and mostly agree. I'm saying his actions were uncalled for and ended Ten's arc on a poor note.

Eh I'm gonna have to continue to disagree. Having the capability isn't the same as having the option. Sure, he was absolutely physically capable of stopping and settling down, just as I am physically capable of quitting my job and turning my back on anyone who depends on me. But because people depend on me to do what I do, I don't really have that option.

I agree with you that what he said was out of line and shouldn't have been said to someone. But I never really considered it as him really saying it to Wilf and I think the point was that Wilf understood that. The Doctor was literally raging against the dying light and he couldn't be taken in earnest at that time. Wilf knew that and I think we were supposed to see that too, as much as it upset us to hear those words seemingly directed at Wilf. Wilf was merely the vehicle of the Ten's destruction. I belief Ten would have raged at anyone who wasn't what he expected (i.e the Master).
