Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Doctor's belief in his own judgment and disregard for UNIT's caution (first shown when proposing sewer infiltration) culminates in his outright defiance of the Brigadier's tactical caution in Part 8, reinforcing his character arc of impulsive but decisive action in the face of bureaucracy.
