* The Daleks weren't wiped out because they [[GenreSavvy know what universe they're in]]. The Doctor has a special connection to Earth, and would choose to defend this planet above all others, including (especially?) her own home planet. So, before committing the vast majority of their population to the deal with the Sontarans, they dropped off a contingent on Earth, knowing that no matter what else happened, that planet ''would'' survive!
* The rapid fire Dalek gun-stick is likely something that they developed in the Time War; given that "Stolen Earth" shows a single Dalek Blast only causes a Time Lord to regenerate, while "The End of Time" and "The Impossible Astronaut" confirm a second blast will kill a Time Lord without regeneration, it is likely that the rapid fire weapon was developed specifically for superior effectiveness against Time Lords.

* While PlayedForLaughs, Nick saying his plan to duck between Dalek firepower did actually include "strategic analysis, weapons assessment and battle-ready thinking": He saw he was standing directly between the two Daleks in a narrow hallway, already knew how fast the guns worked and at what power, and then concluded that if he ducked at the right time, they'd take each other out before they could react.
