It was kinda annoying that Rose herself wasn't actually in the special.

But to attract more viewers and generate more buzz (since Rose is consistently the most popular companion), they used Billie Piper to play a completely different character.

It should have been Susan tbqh.

At first, I kind of felt cheated as someone who was a massive Rose fan. I would've adored some real Ten/Rose interaction.

But Billie Piper was so good, and I thought Moffat did a pretty good job of explaining her presence, that I went with it. Rose's story was complete (though I didn't particularly enjoy its resolution personally), no need to mess with that. Plus, I didn't trust Moffat not to ruin Rose, so I was a bit relieved.

Susan would've been better, probably, yeah. But I was happy.

Susan would have been great if this was a Big Finish and they could have cast Carole-Anne Ford, but the problem is that the Moment isn't straightforwardly like Rose. It's effective because we can see Rose in her, but it's also clearly not Rose. I fear that someone doing a Susan-based Moment would just have come over like someone doing a poor impression of Ford.
