Quite. Capaldi was again wasted with that overblown nonsense. It would have been far more effective had this bit been much, much shorter, with him giving a single line that summed up his realisation about what it means to be The Doctor, before bursting into the regeneration sequence. (As for Bill, she was great, but her story is done. And that last series felt like all guns blazing to give those involved a good send-off. You wonder whether it would have happened had they all been signed up for another series. I kind of doubt it.)
As for Jodie Whittaker, the loss of the TARDIS will make for a decidedly different series, but I hope she gets some decent people writing for her (and – unlikely, I know – some strong script editing). Whatever happens, you can bet the internet will be full of idiot man-babies screaming: SEE? WE TOLD YOU IT WOULD BE RUBBISH WITH A GIRL! (Natch, actual girls will likely be jumping for joy that, for once, the hero of the hour is a woman.)
