Hey! I am getting used to it, and strongly encourage it in fact. (And it didn't sound like flames to me!)
It's not just about family, though. Family's just what chessy!Russell uses to symbolise her life. A life on earth (no matter what earth), a life lived as a human, not as a time traveller. A real life. And that's how, to me, the choice of staying with the Doctor, while being very understandable, and very human, is also very childlike. But we've seen her spend a whole season unlearning everything Nine might've taught her, so I'm absolutely not surprised that she made that choice. Ten has made her into the person that would make that choice.
Anyway, that's my own two cents on the choice. Can we get Jack already?
