Doctor Who: The Timeless Children (2)

Master: 'The foundling had become the founder.'

I have mixed feelings about this finale. I quite liked the Timeless Child story, I'm just not sure it was very well executed. It seemed to raise too many immediate conflicts with established lore, and although it's feasible that some of the tensions will be resolved in future adventures, is that Chibnall's intention? How many times this season have we seen consequence ignored for the sake of spectacle? More importantly, is the show in danger of becoming unrecognisable?
