I thought the point was they had to live through all that character development to end up in the place and mindset where they saved Gallifrey. If the Doctor didn't live through 400 years of angst over destroying his homeworld, then he wouldn't have done all the thinking and working out on how to save it... and Gallifrey would be destroyed anyway.

Or maybe I am just an easy-going fan who didn't mind the retcon.

I've found being an easy-going fan is a lot more enjoyable than taking things too seriously.

Yeah, totally this. I agree 100%

I also thought that was the point of it! And it doesn't cheapen the earlier seasons for me, it gives them meaning. I was getting sick of the ceaseless angst, but now I can watch it comfortably, and sympathize but also think "It will all work out for the best."

and can I say I was so happy about the Doctor admitting he lies about his age? This "I'm 904!" stuff had made me side-eye him so hard as a classic Who watcher, lol. "Suuuuure you are, Doctor. And you never lose track of time, or spend a decade wandering the galaxy in search of the perfect teaspoon"

Yes, well, as someone who read a number of the novels during the 90s, I always thought his constant "900 years!" thing in the new series was a little bit off too, considering that was the last age in old!Who he also claimed to be. I know the books are not official canon, but even so, the gulf between Seven and Nine should have put him over 1000 at least, but he didn't count himself as such until Eleven.
