Because, for me, it's the way the Doctor's universe works. I could just pretend it never happened or go off on a tangent into AU land somewhere, but I would much rather make myself comfortable with the reality we have. And the reality we have is that Rose was abandoned in JE with the Blue Doctor and the Brown Doctor died all alone and in a rather self-centered manner.
Eleven, I believe, will go on as if the Doctor never loved Rose at all. And THAT is not what happened between Nine and Ten...Ten most definitely loved Rose all the way through. According to Martha and Donna and Jack he went on and on about her. But then, I am probably inclined to be biased toward Ten because apart from his final five episodes, Ten is my favorite Doctor...and I am very Old School. I do agree he was crazy though, much more so than Nine who definitely DID have a direct connection to the Old School Doctors...as you say.
I firmly believe that Ten was designed to cut the cord with Old School...and he does do that pretty succinctly. I'm just going to explore that opinion more fully (if I can manage to write anything, that is).
