He needed to tone down the Rose as a scientific genius stuff like WHOA. She seemed very busy bee in the episode, so I'm desperately hand-waving the salute as her not wanting to get bogged down in formalities because she's not the Doctor, even if I liked her she would not be the Doctor. But the scientific expertise...um...no. The Doctor doesn't clue people in that much, and there's nobody else who could've taught her.
Exactly! I could understand if it had been other companions (eg. Martha, Sarah Jane, Liz) who all have some sort of scientific background (or in SJS's case, a past working with UNIT, hence her ability to build a "Cloudbursting" machine in "Warriors of Kudlak"), but for Rose? Nope, so very not convinced...
Rose presumably has alt!Torchwood training -- they did manage to build universe-hoppers -- but what's the Time Lord tech knowledge about? Even if she's "just saying stuff the Doctor might say," it's suspiciously spot on...
