I like the comparison, and interestingly, it connects with why I like Wesley and have problems with Ten. Because Ten is the center of the story, and WAY more powerful than Wesley. Wesley's brokenness and story arc made me love him; Ten's made me scared of/for him, because he has the potential to do so much more damage to the world universe in his broken state. (Not to say I wasn't scared of/for Wesley, but Wesley wasn't a Time Lord with a TARDIS.)

I liked Ten a lot, but I was extremely relieved when he finally regenerated. And I'd been feeling that way for seasons, not just for the post-season four specials that really emphasized that arc of his development.
