Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Klieg's act of killing Viner to revive the Cybermen is the inciting incident that awakens the Cybermen and sets in motion Part 3's plot where the Cyber Controller outlines their genocidal conversion plan. Without Klieg's interference, the Cybermen remain dormant.
