What I respect about Capaldi is that he very clearly has a very specific view of Doctor Who that is the version of the show he has in his childhood memories, and whilst that influences his opinions, he also accepts that the show has to change as well. He clearly treats regeneration very seriously.
Ben Williams
“To be perfectly honest, there are too many regenerations. I love all the Doctors, but I've lost count. The weight of regeneration... is diminished."
This is why the show needs a hard reset and to ditch virtually all of the lore if it is going to succeed in future.
