[[spoiler: The Doctor ''did'' re-set the Cybermen's programming to consider two-hearted humanoids fair game for "upgrading", after all, and they needn't necessarily have ''reversed'' that change when they undid his hacking, just adjusted it to allow for ''both'' single- and double-hearted recruits. The two Masters had walked some distance from the battlefield before taking their ChronicBackstabbingSyndrome UpToEleven, so Missy's fallen body would've been safely out of range of the explosions. And we know from "Heaven Sent" that Time Lords take a ''really'' long time to die, so even without the benefits of regeneration, there could easily be enough life left in her flesh for the Cybermen to "upgrade" what was left of her, when the next wave of Operation Exodus came through to occupy level 507. ]]

Missy has started to feel sympethy, regret, hope....even if she eventually escapes the full conversion, and physically returns to normal, her ''emotions'' may be permanently damaged, turning her back into the evil sociopathic menace we've known and loved to hate!]]

The 13th Doctor will probably find it harder trying to take charge of a situation or expect to be taken seriously if she goes back far enough in Earth's history, than her previous male incarnations. Unless she tries to pass off as male somehow, or spend more time in the background of events.
