* ArtisticLicenseAstronomy: Having a second star pass through the solar system would have had catastrophic impact on the orbital path and ecosystem of Chloris whether it hit the local sun or not, simply by having something with that much gravity and radiating that much heat show up.
* ArtisticLicenseEconomics: Surprisingly averted. Everyone understands that it is the rarity of metal on Chloris that makes it valuable, so a major increase in the supply would drop the value of the metal they already have -- even bandits, who aren't normally known for their grasp of economic theory. On the other hand, these same people don't even consider the possibilities of being on the ground floor of whatever opportunities having a larger metal supply might open up.

The book is in Tibetan...so he takes out a Tibetan learning book, also from his pocket. While this is not often touched upon in the classic series, the Doctor should be able to understand Tibetan thanks to the Tardis's TranslatorMicrobes. It is probably just RuleOfFunny, though.
